For immediate release

CALL FOR PIANO WORKS 2019

It is with great pleasure and thrilling enthusiasm that RMN Classical is announcing its new Call for Piano Works 2019.

After the great success of the 2018 Call for Piano Music, RMN Classical decided to launch the 2019 edition of the Call for Piano Works to discover and develop new composers and performers that would otherwise remain under the radar as well as promote and support the international growth of the more established ones. 

This is an opportunity for both, those artists who have studio recordings of their works and are looking for an opportunity to promote themselves and showcase their music and ideas, and those, whose works have, indeed, been performed and recorded live but never got published or distributed. Composers and performers with previously published works can participate as well. 

Note that this Call is also addressed to pianists who own recordings of works from the repertoire or from less known composers and who have the rights to release that recording. (Pianists will have to opportunity to participate in the Performers category).

This Call for Piano Works 2019 is open to anyone, regardless of age or country of residency. The track(s) submitted are intended to be of Contemporary music and for piano solo, piano duos or four (or more) hands. Both Live and Studio recordings are accepted, as well as VST/Computer generated tracks. Works written for Duo, Trio, chamber music, etc, or those that include voice or electronics won’t be accepted. 

There are no restrictions regarding neither the duration – even though RMN recommend to preferably submit short and medium length tracks – nor the number of recordings that each applicant can submit.

The selected works will be featured in a top quality release and added to both RMN Music’s catalog and to the Sound and Music Archive of the British Library, which already hosts all RMN Music catalog. The new album will be produced by RMN Classical, released worldwide through RMN Music, and distributed on a high-quality edition on various platforms around the world (including but not limited to iTunes, Apple Music, Google Play Music, Amazon Music, Spotify, Pandora and many others).

The prize for the selected winners will also include high-quality design of the cover artwork, chart registration in the USA, the UK, and Canada, licensing and copyright clearance and the composers will retain 100% of the copyright. Additionally, there will be the opportunity for synchronisation and licensing (tv and media) and optionally physical distribution and manufacturing of the album will be available on demand.

The cut-off-date will be May 26, 2019, and the application fee will be divided into discounted Early Bird (ending April 28, 2019) and Full Price (ending May 26, 2019).

Each applicant/composer will have the opportunity to submit their works via the Application Form (link), and the submission should include the link to the recording, the score, notes about the composition, about the composer, and about the performer(s).
