American Composers Orchestra Announces Deadline for EarShot 2014-15 Submissions

The American Composers Orchestra has announced its deadline for all EarShot submissions for the 2014-15 season. Various reading opportunities are available for emerging composers for the upcoming season with the Buffalo Philharmonic, Chicago Modern Orchestra, Berkeley Symphony and the ACO's own Underwood.

EarShot is a nationwide network of new music readings and composer refining programs. It's the nation's first ongoing and systematic program for identifying the next best in budding orchestral composers.

The experiences allow composers to have a professional-level working experience with orchestras from all over the country, as well as helping increase the awareness of new composers.

EarShot is in partnership with American Composers Orchestra, American Composers Forum, New Music USA and the League of American Orchestras.

The following programs are available for composers across the country (applicants may apply to more than one, of course):
