YCP Registration Form

Young Composers Project – Registration Information

Registration form is below. Registrations should be received by February 16.

What you need to know for participation in the YCP:

Children in grades K-7 are eligible – and enrollment is limited.
The YCP concert with VCNJ will be held at Music Together headquarters, Hopewell, NJ – Monday, April 17, 7-8pm

Mentoring workshops: Tuesday March 7, Wednesday March 22, and Workshop/Rehearsal Monday April 10
Children are encouraged to attend all three workshops but must attend two workshops and one of those two must be the final Workshop/Rehearsal on Monday, April 10.
Workshops will run from 4:30-6:30, allowing for the scheduling of a combination of group and individual times, as needed.
Parent or another adult must accompany the child to the workshop/s and the concert.

Compositions/songs
- Must have a vocal element which may be performed by either Voices or the child(ren) or both.
- Children can either create new works or develop pre-existing ones as part of the project. Compositions should be primarily the child’s creation, with facilitation by parents and/or music teachers, as needed.
- Compositions may include piano accompaniment, which will be provided for the performance (child may choose to play it but that is not required). Compositions may include other instruments, and that must be arranged for by the young composer.

Notation
- Compositions need to be notated, which may require facilitation, as needed, by teachers and/or parents. However, this requirement should not be an obstacle to participation.
- Notations invented by the children are acceptable as long as VCNJ singers or the pianist or other performers can read the notation well enough to perform their parts. A combination of the child’s invented notation and conventional notation for performers could also work.

Attendance at the concert will be by free will donation.
