Young Composers Project 2024
Registration Information
Registration form is below.
Registration deadline is Sunday, January 28, 2024
What you need to know for participation in the YCP:
- Children in grades K-7 are eligible – and enrollment is limited.
- Mentoring workshops will be held in February, March, and April – dates, times, and locations to be determined.
- Final workshop-rehearsal will be at Music Together Headquarters, Hopewell, NJ the evening of Monday May 13
- The YCP concert with VCNJ will be held at Music Together Headquarters Monday, May 20, 7-8pm
- 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 VCNJ or the child or both.
- Children will be mentored to 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 concert performance (children may choose to play but that is not required). Compositions may include other instruments, and that must be arranged for by the young composer.
- Compositions will eventually need to be notated, which may require facilitation by teachers and/or parents. However, this requirement should not be an obstacle to participation.
