This year’s Prize is for Trumpet and Percussion We have tweaked the rules and format after reviewing feedback from last year, and are very pleased to say that we have found a way to remove the application fee, add a second prize, and increase the first prize purse as well. Read on for all of the details.

Rules and Regulations All emerging composers are invited to submit an unpublished, un-premiered work for trumpet (one player, all doublings) and percussion (one player) of at least 6 minutes’ duration. Feasibility of the percussion set-up will be a factor in judging. All submissions must be PDF format computer-generated scores (Sibelius, Finale, etc.) accompanied by a midi or mp3 realization. The scores will be anonymized by the contest coordinator prior to distribution to the jury. There is no entry fee. All materials must be received by June 1, 2012.

Frequently Asked Questions Is this a piece for ‘trumpet AND percussion’ or ‘trumpet OR percussion’? The rules require that the piece be for trumpet AND percussion, one player on each part. Is writing for a certain ‘type’ of trumpet required? No, you can choose to write for any trumpet (Bb, C, piccolo, flugelhorn, cornet, etc…). Also any ‘doublings’ are OK – in other words, the trumpet player can switch between the varieties of trumpets. |
