Wellington Branch IRMTNZ invites submissions of scores for beginner violin and cello students.
Wellington Branch IRMTNZ is planning to publish Easy Tunes for Tamariki, a collection of original piecesfor violin and for cello submitted by composers from Aotearoa New Zealand. The music is to be appropriate for pupils from preliminary up to grade 2 level, and each is to include a simple piano accompaniment.
There is a shortage of published solo music for beginners up to grade 2 level by New Zealand composers for instruments other than piano. This project aims to help to rectify that situation.
A payment is available for the composers of the selected pieces, thanks to the generosity of a private benefactor.
Deadline for receipt of scores: 11.59 pm (NZT), 30 November 2021.
