Project selected and funded by the European Union

The London Schubert Players invites composers of any age and nationality to write short works for specific

chamber music combinations which do not exist or are very rare in the standard classical music repertoire.

Any number of inspiring and well written works to enhance this repertoire will be selected by the LSP with

the following aims:

To perform them in concerts in 2010 and 2011 in Britain, France and Romania

To record them on CD

To publish the works

To publish a book about the composers

To perform and discuss them in international workshops, seminars and forums

Experimental and electronic music not suited for this project

Maximum duration 20 minutes

We welcome cultural elements drawn by the composers from their own indigenous heritage: music,

literature, poetry, visual arts

We welcome descriptive titles but they are not obligatory

We prefer to receive the instrumental parts in free pages and not bound

All entries must include the composer’s CV and full contact details.

Entries should reach the LSP at the above address by 1st August 2010.

Each composer will be notified about the selection.

The successful works will be listed on LSP’s website.
