Composers are invited to submit recent or newly composed works for a final round test piece for the British Contemporary Piano Competition to be held at the University of Surrey, UK (date TBC but around October/November 2010).
• 10 minutes duration (maximum)
• The call is open to all ages and nationalities
• Pieces must have been written within the last 2 years and may have been performed previously.
• Rehearsal time will be limited (combination of piano and EA). The complexity of the setup and EA element should reflect this.
• Submission should include a hard copy score, audio CD of any prerecorded EA material and (if applicable) a data CD/DVD of relevant code for live and responsive elements. The score and electronic element should contain sufficient information for the work to be performed without the composer being present. In addition, you are welcome to submit live performance recordings of your work on audio CD if you have them but this is not a necessity.
• Closing date – 8th January 2010
Submitted materials should be sent to:

College Lane Campus
