In preparation for its 40th anniversary season, The Manchester Chorale invites composers to write a work of a celebratory nature. 1st prize of £1,000 No restrictions on age or nationality Text, in English, to be chosen by the composer No entry fee Deadline for submission of pieces: 31st March 2019 The Manchester Chorale will be marking its 40th anniversary in the 2019/20 season. With this in mind, we are inviting composers to submit a piece for chamber choir, to be performed during the season, with which we can celebrate the joy of singing and making music together. The Work Length – between 3 and 6 minutes. A capella, or with piano accompaniment. The piece should be primarily for SATB choir (about 45 singers); however, some divisi of the soprano, alto or bass parts can be accommodated. Short solo passages could be included in any part, although it is recommended they are marked “optional”. The text must be in English. Composers are asked to check that a text is out of copyright before using it. If it is not, please obtain written permission for its use from the copyright holder before submitting your composition to us. We may ask you to send this to us later. You may, of course, set a text that you have written yourself. The piece must not have been published or performed previously. For full details, please click on the link below: |
