INTERNATIONAL
COMPOSERS
FESTIVAL
In 2022 we received 863 submissions from composers
Each year composers are invited to submit original melodic compositions. We then select the very best works characterised by passion, sensitivity, emotion and excitement.
From the hundreds of submitted works, around 50 will be chosen to be performed by our large International Festival Orchestra, world-renowned soloists, ensembles, singers and dancers.
