3/5/2023

 
Chronos Vocal Ensemble's Composition Competition is now accepting entries.
Deadline is May 26, 2023. Prize $1500, entry fee $25.  

Winning competition entries are represented on several Chronos recordings, and have been performed at Podium and ACDA conferences.
This competition is open to diverse entries, aligned with the Western classical canon or from outside that tradition, including works which explore aleatoric and indeterminate elements, or use graphic notation. Submissions should be suited to the strengths and limitations of our ensemble as evidenced in our recordings and history of performance. 
Prizes for this competition have been provided by an anonymous donor, whose generous support is greatly appreciated.
Entries are evaluated anonymously by a jury of Canadian choral professionals, assisted by Chronos Vocal Ensemble’s Artistic Director.
Full entry guidelines and the entry form can be found on our website.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or if you need any additional information.
All eligible entries must be complete with an entry form.

I came across your announcement titled "Chronos Vocal Ensemble's Composition Competition" on the Choral Alberta website, and I wanted to express my appreciation for promoting this exciting opportunity for composers.

The Chronos Vocal Ensemble's Composition Competition is a fantastic platform for composers to showcase their creativity and contribute to the choral music repertoire. It's encouraging to see organizations like Chronos Vocal Ensemble actively supporting and promoting new choral compositions.

By inviting composers to submit their works, the competition fosters innovation and encourages the development of fresh and captivating choral music. It not only provides recognition for the winners but also inspires composers to explore new musical ideas and techniques.

I appreciate the inclusivity of the competition, as it welcomes submissions from composers of all backgrounds and levels of experience. This diversity ensures a rich and varied selection of compositions that reflect the breadth of artistic voices in the choral community.

Furthermore, the fact that the competition focuses on unaccompanied choral music presents a unique opportunity for composers to explore the intricacies and expressive possibilities of the human voice. It allows for the creation of captivating choral works that can captivate and move audiences.

I commend Chronos Vocal Ensemble for their dedication to fostering the growth of choral music through initiatives like this competition. By providing a platform for emerging and established composers to showcase their talents, they contribute to the continued vitality and evolution of the choral art form.

I look forward to the announcement of the winners and the performance of the selected compositions by the Chronos Vocal Ensemble. It will undoubtedly be an exciting showcase of new choral music, and I commend the ensemble for their commitment to championing contemporary compositions.

Thank you for sharing this announcement and for your efforts in supporting and promoting choral music and the work of composers. Initiatives like the Chronos Vocal Ensemble's Composition Competition contribute to the vibrant and ever-evolving choral landscape.
