CAPMT Commissioned Composer Program
CAPMT, the California State Affiliate of MTNA, is committed to supporting the careers of California Composers. The chosen recipient of the CAPMT 2023 Commission will write a new work to be premiered at the 2023 CAPMT State Conference in Southern California.
The amount of the CAPMT 2023 Commission is $2,000,
Funded by CAPMT with the support of matching funds from MTNA.
To further recognize outstanding contributions to American music, MTNA annually invites state affiliates to submit their commissioned work to a panel of recognized composers for national competitive adjudication. The winning composition is presented in performance at the next MTNA National Conference, and the composer is proclaimed the MTNA Distinguished Composer of the Year.
For more information and details about the national program, please see the web page for the MTNA Commissioned Composer Program:
