METAMORPHOSES 2010 COMPETITION
DL : 2 April 2010

The Métamorphoses composition competition comprises two categories:

- category A for composers under the age of 28 and composition
students (proving such quality) and
- category B for all composers of less than 50 years old who wish to
compete in this category.

The competition takes place in two stages:

1. Members of the pre-selection jury receive and listen to all the
competing works. Then they meet at the end of June 2010 to listen
again to the best entries and choose the 5 or 6 works from category B
that will be selected for the October 2010 final and published on
stereo CD.

This jury also elects the winner of category A, whose work will also
be included on the CD.

A spatialization competition will be held during the festival
L'Espace du Son in October 2010. The candidates will perform a set
work chosen from the works received for the Métamorphoses
competition. The jury reserves the right to decide whether this work
will be included on the CD.

2. During the final of the Métamorphoses competition which will take
place on 21 October 2010, the finalist composers who wish to do so
can spatialize their work in public on the M&R acousmonium
(loudspeaker orchestra). At the end of the evening, a jury different
from the preselection jury will determine the ranking and award prizes.

Prize for category A

1st Prize: Publishing of the work on CD, performance at the concert
of 21 October 2010, and 10 copies of the CD.

Prizes for category B

1st prize: 2500 Euros.
Audience Prize: 500 Euros.
M&R prize: residence at the composition studio "Métamorphoses
d'Orphée". All finalists' works will be published on CD and 5 copies
of the CD will be offered to each finalist.

The stereo work chosen by the pre-selection jury will be performed as
the set work in the spatialization competition that will take place
in the context of the festival L'Espace du Son. The jury reserves the
right to decide whether this work will be included on the CD.

The biennial Métamorphoses competition of acousmatic composition is
organized by Musiques & Recherches with the support of Communauté
française Wallonie-Bruxelles de Belgique.
