I found this site for composition competition, and seems to me like very good one.

- Composition for an orchestra, except concerto (no concerto), must be no less than 10 minutes nor more than 20 minutes.

- Maximum Instrumentation:

so you think this is not worth considering cause they pay trip to japan for winers, and somehow you think that's not possible or what?

No, I mean, if they're only going to take one kidney, it might be worth it... it's not funny if I have to explain it. :(

Im not too much of an orchestral composer (as of now) ...but I think I'll invest some time to compete in this competition...

I mean, whats the worst that happens, I dont win...but I'll still have a newly composed work for myself
