Introduction

The Reggello International Festival Composers' Competition was first held in 2004. The format of the event, the participating ensemble and the performances of the prize winning pieces were all the same as for 2005 (see below), but the 1st Prize has been greatly increased from 1.000 Euros to 2.500. The prizewinner in 2004 were:

1st PRIZE: Paolo Geminiani (Italy) - Voci
2nd PRIZE: Tristan Rhys Williams (Britain) - Deadly Nightshade
Certificate of Participation: Christopher McClelland (Northern Ireland) - [f]

The members of jury were Knut Vaage (Norway), Andrea Cavallari (Italy), and the Festival Director, Gwyn Pritchard (Great Britain).

The London performance of the 1st and 2nd prizewinners' pieces will be given on April 30th, 2005 at St Giles, Cripplegate, Barbican, London EC2.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 2005 Competition

For both 1st and 2nd prizes the first of the two performances will be given at the 3nd Reggello International Festival, which will run from July 8th to 17th, 2005; the second in London (exact dates and venues to be announced).

From the submitted works an international jury will select four finalists who will be invited to stay in Reggello as guests of the Festival for two days. On the first day their compositions will be rehearsed in a public workshop, after which the pieces to be awarded 1st and 2nd prize will be chosen. On the second day the two winning works will receive a public performance in the evening concert at which the prizes will be awarded.

The workshop and the performances will be given by Uroboros Ensemble conducted by Gwyn Pritchard. Although there are no 3rd or 4th prizes the remaining two pieces may be retained by the performers for possible future performance. Composers who will be unable to attend the workshop and concert in Reggello may still enter the competition.

The names of the four finalists will be placed on this website soon after May 8th, and the composers will also be notified immediately by email or post. Performing material must be sent to the Festival International Office in London so as to arrive by June 17th. The names of the two winners will be announced at the Festival (if the composers cannot be present at the festival they will be notified by email or post) and their names will also be placed on this website.

All composers wishing to submit pieces should read the conditions below and then print out and complete the Entry Form which must accompany all submissions.
