Hemisphere Contest
For New Symphony
Has Amended Rules

Four major changes hberalizing
the contest rules of the $32 500 SYM
phony of the Americas competition
are announced by the sponsor, Henry
H. Reichhold, president Of the De-
troit Symphony Orchestra. The de-
cision to alter the rules of the con-
test followed three-month survey
of conditions in Latin America and
the recent recommendations made
to the Reichhold Music Award
Committee by the American Com
posers' Alliance, headed by Aaron
COPELAND.
The final entry date has been ex-
tended to March !, 1916. The four
amendments will achieve the fol-
lowing: Cd Give composers an ad-
ditional six months to complete their
symphonic works (2) Release COM
posers from sending in individual
parts with the full orchestral score.
90 Permit the national juries Of
the % participating countries to
submit three compositions instead of
one to the final international jury
which will award the first, second
and third prizes of SIS, 200, 5000
and $4,000, respectively. "a Grant
performance fees and all publishing
rights to winners Of honorable men,
ton or certificate of merit awards.
Mr.. Reichhold stated in explain
ing this action: 1--WE have had no
precedent for this tremendous hemi-
spheric project. We believe that
these changes will meet with un-
qualified approval from all COM
posers and especially from those
who have offered us constructive
criticism. We will not lose sight of
our principal aims-to discover out
standing new symphonic music and
to promote a feeling Of greater cul-
ltural solidarity among the creative
artists Of the Americas"
The international jury will con-
sist of Karl Kruger, music direc-
tor of the Detroit Symphony; Roy
Harris, composer and music consult
ant for the overseas branch of the
Office of War Information; DR..
Eric Delamarter, composer and con-
ductor; Herbert Elwell, music critic
of the Cleveland Plain Dealer; DR..
Howard Hanson, composer and di-
rector Of the Eastman School of
Music; Donald N. Swarthout, dean
Of the Fine Arts School, University
Of Kansas, and Alfred Wallenstein,
musical director of the Los Angeles
Philharmonic Orchestra. Mr.. Krue-
ger will serve as chairman of the
jury and will conduct the first per-
formance of the prize winning
works during the Detroit SYM
phony's regular series of Mutual net
work broadcasts.
Formal notification of the changes
in the rules will be mailed to the
5000 persons in this country and
Canada who have already received
official contest rules from the COM
mittee.
