[ANPPOM-Lista] Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition

[Carlos Palombini]

Nominations for the 2020 Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition are now
open. See “The Nomination Process” below for instructions for submitting a
nomination.

Description

Music has the ability to inspire, to bring joy to those who hear it and
those who create it. It can convey great emotion in just a few powerful
notes. There is, perhaps, no greater expression of the human spirit. For
this reason, the Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition honors those who
bring beauty and inspiration into the world.

The University of Louisville offers an international prize in recognition
of outstanding achievement by a living composer in a large musical genre:
choral, orchestral, chamber, electronic, song-cycle, dance, opera, musical
theater, extended solo work and more. The award will be granted for a work
premiered during the five-year period prior to the award deadline (i.e.
time period Jan.1, 2014 – Dec. 31, 2018 for the 2020 award).

Prize Amount

The Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition is accompanied by a prize of
$100,000, which is presented in full during the awards ceremony.

Eligibility

Musical works including, but not limited to, choral, orchestral, chamber,
song-cycle, dance, opera, musical theater, extended solo.
