	Barlow Prize New Work for Chamber Ensemble 1. THE BARLOW PRIZE The winning composer will receive a $12,000 commission from the Barlow Endowment to compose a major new work for chamber ensemble—a group of six to eight instruments selected from standard acoustic orchestral instruments. A national performing consortium of four prominent chamber ensembles will premiere the work in 2007: Network for New Music Ensemble (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania—Linda Reichert, Director); Ensemble X (Ithaca, New York— Steven Stucky , Director); Indiana University New Music Ensemble (Bloomington, Indiana—David Dzubay, Director); and Left Coast Chamber Ensemble (San Francisco, California—Kurt Rohde, Director). The 13-15 minute work is expected to meet the highest artistic requirements for the medium. Additional specifications for the work will be negotiated among the Barlow Endowment, the composer, and the performing consortium. Half of the commission fee will be paid when the contract for the commission is signed, and the other half will be paid when the finished score is submitted to the Endowment. 2. ELIGIBILITY There are no restrictions with regard to musical style, nationality, age, gender, race, religion, or political persuasion. The only limitations are: 1) composers who have won the Barlow Prize in the previous five years will not be considered; and 2) members of the Barlow Boards are not eligible. 3. APPLICATION PROCEDURES A composer may apply for the Barlow Prize by filling out the application blank below and submitting it with appropriate supporting material. The application and supporting materials should be sent by regular or express mail and must include a resume of compositional activity and exactly two recent representative scores. One of these scores must be no more than five years old, and at least one must demonstrate the composer's ability to write an extended work for chamber ensemble . Scores with recordings are considered extremely helpful in the judging process. Accordingly, a separate CD or cassette tape should be submitted for each piece. Be certain CD cases list detailed program and track information, and cassettes are cued to selected material. (The judging panel will not be able to review MP3, DVD, video, or DAT formats.) Since the prize is a commission, anonymous submission is not necessary. 4. DEADLINES All applications must be received no later than June 1, 2005 . The Endowment will not consider applications received after that deadline. We encourage contestants from outside the United States to mail their materials early to avoid problems caused by postal delays. 5. JUDGING The Barlow Prize will be judged by the Barlow Endowment Board of Advisors and additional guest judges representing the interests and perspectives of the ensembles. The Barlow Endowment will notify the winner, participants, and friends of the Endowment of the results before September 15, 2005 . If, in the opinion of the judging panel, no applicant merits the Barlow Prize, it shall not be awarded. 6. SUBMISSION AND CARE OF MATERIALS Scores and recordings will be returned only if accompanied by a self-addressed envelope with correct postage, payment in U.S. dollars, a money order in U.S. dollars, or International Reply Coupons for postage. (Meticulous care will be exercised with all materials, but neither the Endowment nor Brigham Young University will be responsible for lost or damaged scores or recordings.)
