Golden Hornet's String Quartet Smackdown is a bracketed, NCAA basketball style tournament competition which brings original string quartet compositions head-to-head in front of a live, participatory audience. All sixteen finalists receive a professional studio recording of their work. One finalist is determined the champion by the voting audience, and wins a cash prize. Composers of any age, experience level, and background are welcome to submit. There are no geographic constraints - we welcome submissions from around the world. Beyond instrumentation -- compositions must be written for a traditional string quartet -- there are no style constraints. In particular, we encourage submissions from individuals who identify with historically marginalized and/or underrepresented demographics, especially within the field of classical music. There is no cost to enter or participate. Simply complete this form by DECEMBER 1, 2019 @ Midnight (Central Standard Time). Any submissions received after this deadline will NOT be considered. *** We strongly encourage you to review the "Frequently Asked Questions" before preparing your submission or contacting us.
