Composers are invited to submit a work for chamber ensemble (any combination of instruments from a solo piece up to a maximum of 5 instruments consisting of string quartet, contra bass, trumpet, clarinet, oboe, two percussionists, piano, flute, bassoon, trombone and electronics.

Submitted pieces may be up to 5 minutes. The scores will be adjudicated by a professional composer/performer panel. The criteria for the selections are based on innovation, imagination, and originality with preference for scores that have not been premiered. This call for scores is open to composers of any age or nationality and all musical genres.

The deadline is December 31, 2010. The decision will be posted on the Orchestra of our Time website by Jan. 30, 2011. The readings will take place in March, 2011. Composers whose works we will be reading may attend the reading session.

5-10 scores from the readings will be selected for a performance in May 2011. Composers whose works we will be performing in May will be invited to attend.
