Young Composers' Competition

Nottingham Youth Orchestra is holding a concert as part of the LOCOG Cultural Olympiad on March 3rd 2012 at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham which will be a Countdown Event for the London 2012 Festival, the finale of the Cultural Olympiad.

As part of this event we asked local young composers to compose a celebratory opening piece for the whole orchestra which should appeal to a non specialist audience including school children.

The winning composer will have their composition premiered in the concert on the 3rd March and also will receive a prize of £150. The second and third prize composers will receive Windblowers vouchers.
