 <\/p>\n

The invitation to tender for the fourth Basel Composition Competition<\/a> was open to all composers, there were no age restrictions or educational requirements. The three best compositions were awarded cash prizes (CHF 60,000 for first prize, CHF 25,000 for second prize and CHF 15,000 for third prize).<\/p>\n

Only 14% of the submissions came from women. For this reason, the competition's education project aims to help create new role models. Since the first competition in 2017, there has also been another educational project that aims to familiarize schoolchildren with the profession of composing.<\/p>\n

This year's jury consists of Michael Jarrell (President), Rebecca Saunders, Isabel Mundry, Andrea Scartazzini, Toshio Hosokawa and Florian Besthorn.<\/p>\n

All concerts can be followed via a free live stream.<\/p>\n

The concerts from February 9 to 11 will feature works by: Masato Kimura, Steven Heelein, Leonardo Silva, Jinhan Xiao, Carlos Satue, Kotaro Morikawa, Masashi Kawashima, Jinseok Choi, John Weeks, Valerio Rossi, Gijsbrecht Roij\u00e9, Nana Kamiyama.<\/p>\n
