MusInfo is pleased to announce the First International composition contest for acoustic instrument and electroacoustic device. With this initiative MusInfo proposes to open a new space intended to uphold the work of contemporary composers and sound artists in the field of “live-electronic” music.

Composers are invited to write a short study of 2 to 4 minutes maximum. The electroacoustic device is represented by the software P-Soft that MusInfo supplies on its web page. The composers whose studies are chosen will receive a commission from the Opus Centrum ensemble who collaborates with MusInfo. They will be invited to write a full length composition that will be played and recorded during the Art and Science Days 2015. The electroacoustic device will be supplied to composers by MusInfo for the period of composition.

Participation requirements:

The contest is open from April 10th until May 15th 2014.
The call is open to composers of any age.
There are no fees for inscription.
The contest is open to any short study (from 2 to 4 min long) written for P-Soft and an acoustic solo instrument (flute, saxophone or trumpet). No other software and no audio files can be used.
