The University of Iowa will act as a central depository site in order to keep track of all scores and tapes. Electroacoustic works cannot be considered. Composers able to provide their own players are encouraged to submit as well. Proposals for papers, panels, demonstrations and workshops concerning any aspect of composers or the composition enterprise are welcome. Please submit a 200-250 word abstract outlining the presentation, and indicating its nature and time required for presenting.
Supplemental materials are welcome.
All selected participants are expected to attend the conference and be SCI members in good standing. Composers are invited to submit up to 2 works for solo instruments, instruments with tape, chamber ensembles, symphonic band, or orchestra. Many non-western instruments are also available, though composers should contact the host to confirm availability before submitting scores. Composers may also submit papers on subjects dealing with any aspect of composition. Composers are encouraged to provide their own performers.
