How do I apply?
Download the application. Please submit the following components with the application:
- A recording including up to two original songs. The recording should clearly demonstrate the applicant's performance and writing ability. Include a brief, written outline with the title, style, and composer of each track.
- A 500-word narrative in English, describing the applicant's aspirations for a career in music and experiences in the field.
Early submission is strongly recommended. Your recording may be sent separately if you apply by fax; however, your application will not be considered until all materials have been received.
