RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra and Contemporary Music Centre announce Composer Lab 2018

For a third year running, the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra and CMC are running an opportunity for CMC registered composers to write for symphony orchestra.

Composer Lab is open to composers who have had limited opportunities to write for symphony orchestra/large-scale ensemble and aims to provide these composers with a creative and open environment to deepen their experience in writing for symphonic forces.

The deadline for applications is 6 October 2017 and further information is available from cmc.ie/opportunities/composer-lab.

The most recent Composer Lab took place earlier this year and participating composers included David Bremner, Séan Doherty, Francis Heery, and Matthew Whiteside. The resulting works were performed in a public concert by the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra in May 2017.
