SUBMISSIONS CLOSE AUGUST 15
The winning score will be performed in the 2025-2026 season.
Please familiarize yourself with the Call for Scores guidelines before submitting. Composers may submit as many works as they choose so long as they pay a separate entry fee ($15) for each piece submitted and fill out multiple forms. The entry fee will be dedicated to supporting the Student Symphony Orchestra’s musical pursuits.
