Chamber Music America is pleased to request applications for its jazz commissioning program—New Works: Creation and Presentation—which is now entering its ninth year.
Grant range: up to $15,000
Deadline: February 28, 2008
The program supports the creation and performance of new compositions in the jazz idiom. Funding is available to professional jazz ensembles that are led by or include a composer/performer.
Ensembles must consist of a core of musicians who perform original music that includes jazz improvisation, have a demonstrated history of performing together as a jazz ensemble, and range in size from two to ten members. Works may represent the wide range of styles associated with jazz, from traditional to non-traditional.
