Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition
The University of Louisville School of Music is pleased to announce the University of Louisville Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition 2005. The University will offer 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, etc. The award will be granted for a work premiered during the five-year period between 1 January 1999 and 31 December 2003. The amount of the award to the composer will be two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00).

Deadline
To be considered for the 2005 award, completed entries must be received by Jan. 26, 2004. In addition, all submitted work must have premiered between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2003. The Grawemeyer Music Award Committee will acknowledge receipt of all accepted entries. Late or incomplete entries will not be accepted.

How to Enter

The Grawemeyer Music Award Committee invites the submission of
scores by outstanding composers throughout the world and has established the following rules and procedures for its selection of the winning work:

Each entry for the Grawemeyer Music Award must be sponsored by a professional musical organization or individual (performer or performing group, conductor, critic, publisher, or head of a professional music school or department). A composer may not submit his or her own work. No more than one work of any composer may be submitted, and entries from previous winners of this award will not be considered.
Each entry must be submitted separately, and must
include the following:
One copy of the full score (For works with non-
English text, it is recommended that an English
translation or English synopsis be submitted.)
Scores must be bound.
One excellent quality audio cassette tape or
compact disc recording of a professional-level
performance of the complete work. A videotape
(U.S. VHS format only) may also be submitted if
visual elements are related to the musical aspects
of the work. Do not include other works or
spoken commentary such as radio interviews or
conductor’s remarks.
Documentation of the premier public performance
of the work between 1/1/99 and 12/31/03: printed
program, reviews, etc. A radio broadcast or sound
recording does not constitute a premier. Works
may be resubmitted during the period of eligibility.

Program notes in English
Supporting letter in English from the sponsor of
the entry, which must state sponsor’s relation to
the submitted work and sponsor’s belief in the
outstanding qualities of the work
Composer’s photograph
Composer’s biography in English, which should
briefly outline the composer’s total achievement
and recognition

The Grawemeyer Music Award Committee will appoint a jury of three internationally recognized music professionals: normally a composer, a conductor, and a critic. Each juror will select, from qualifying scores submitted, up to three works they deem worthy of the Award. The Grawemeyer Music Award Committee will then recommend one of these works to the President of the University of Louisville. Upon the recommendation of the President, the Board of Trustees of the University of Louisville will grant the Award.
Completed entries for the Grawemeyer Award must reach the University of Louisville by January 26, 2004. The Grawemeyer Music Award Committee will acknowledge receipt of all accepted entries. Late or incomplete entries will not be considered.
