2007/08 call for works

Due Date: Ongoing (Original Deadline for Octet concert March 31, 2007)

The London Contemporary Music Group (LCMG) is pleased to announce a new ‘Call for Works’ alongside their existing call, for new pieces for inclusion in their 2007/08 concert series. The LCMG is looking for new works for inclusion in forthcoming concerts for instrumental lineups drawn from either an Octet (cl, bsn, hn, 2 vlns, vla, vc, db) or Quintet (fl, cl, pno, vln, vc). The scores needn't be for the full combinations, so we welcome any submissions from solo through to the full lineup.

We are also planning concerts for Septet (fl, cl, hn, perc*, vln, vcl) and Sextet (fl, cl, pno, perc*, vln, vc) but there are no specific dates for these events as of yet.

The LCMG undertakes to perform one piece by an up and coming composer in every concert that it does, and has so far performed (amongst others) works by Andrew Thomas and Gareth Churchill.

The call is open to any composer regardless of age or nationality. This call does not affect the main LCMG ‘Call for Works’, which is running concurrently. Submissions cost £5.00 (per score) to cover administrative costs, which is payable through the LCMG website or by cheque.
