Hello All!
It has been a busy month with 8 performances featuring the Lehner String
Quartet, tenor saxophonist Drew Hosler, clarinetist Thomas Piercy,
flutist Alise Anna Alksne, and cellist Craig Hultgren. We presented
more than 70 composers premiering their works online. You can find the
performances on Vox Novus pages, YouTube and the Facebook. Please let

But the excitement doesn't stop!
There is a call for Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame for Toy Piano currently on

Call for Submissions -Collaboration & Accompaniment
Composer's Voice Featuring Andrew White
Vox Novus in collaboration with Virtual Concert Halls is calling for
works for baritone Andrew White and accompaniment. This unique event
will happen live online broadcasted by Virtual Concert Halls to several
video streaming platforms.
The main purpose and goal of this online event is to foster and broaden
the art song genre. This event creates an opportunity for composers to
“voice” or express their musical ideas as well as explore and experiment
with accompaniment through the digital video medium. Composers are
encouraged to be experimental or just compose outside their comfort zone
to create works for this project.
Our secondary purpose of this project is to introduce Andrew White to
new composers and those composers to Andrew White. It is also a chance
to introduce living composers to audiences giving them a chance to talk
about their work and how they go about creating it. Besides the
performance of the works, Andrew White will lead a discussion with the
selected composers speaking about their compositions and careers.
The online performance will take place on Saturday April 23rd, 2022 2:00
PM EDT (UTC-4)
Collaboration and accompaniment is an online project of the Composer’s
Voice concert series empowering living composers and the musicians who
champion new music.
