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 
me know if you can't find anything.

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

There is also a newly released opportunity for Composer's Voice 
featuring baritone Andrew White.

Here are the details:

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.

Composer’s Voice is a Vox Novus project.
