<strong>MC</strong> - <strong>Composition</strong> <strong>Competitive</strong><br />

SUBMISSION OF COMPOSITIONS:<br />

- A copy of your composition MUST be included with the registration form.<br />

Ensure that your name is on the composition with each page numbered and that each<br />

system begins with a bar number. Scores using non-traditional notation must include a<br />

set of upper-case letters to designate sections of the work for the adjudicator's<br />

reference.<br />

- ALL submissions must be fully scored, so a thorough adjudication can be given<br />

with all references to the score.<br />

- ALL compositions for voice with accompaniment must have a vocal AND<br />

accompanying instrumental part(s) completely notated. Assistance required to do this is<br />

permitted.<br />

- All styles of musical compositions are acceptable. However, students are<br />

encouraged to create imaginative, original works with a contemporary character,<br />

utilizing the style and musical language of the 20th and 21st centuries.<br />

- A recorded performance of the work sent with the score would be welcome. The<br />

recording MUST be on a CD in MP3 format. These recordings WILL NOT be used<br />

for the performance at the actual class.<br />

- All scores and CDs will be mailed to the composition adjudicator. Assessed<br />

scores will be returned by the adjudicator to the <strong>Festival</strong> Coordinator. Adjudications<br />

will be read at the performance class by a member of the <strong>Festival</strong> <strong>Music</strong> Committee<br />

or a <strong>Festival</strong> Adjudicator. All scores and CDs will be returned at that time.<br />

PERFORMANCE OF COMPOSITIONS:<br />

- ALL submissions are expected to be performed live and composers should give<br />

this serious consideration before entering. If performance does not take place,<br />

adjudication will be given, but no class placement or recommendation for awards will<br />

be given. Performances DO NOT have to be by the composer. ALL performances<br />

requiring accompaniment MUST be done ACOUSTICALLY. There will be NO<br />

allowance for the use of ANY system of amplification or alternative modes of<br />

accompaniment. (See class LC-Live Creativity Class)<br />

- ADJUDICATIONS ARE FOR THE COMPOSITIONS ONLY, NOT THE<br />

PERFORMANCES.<br />

-The adjudicator may recommend compositions for performance at the Grand<br />

<strong>Festival</strong> Concert.<br />
