latest iteration of the Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame project! It all began back
in 2009 when the brilliant pianist Shiau-uen Ding celebrated Robert
Voisey’s birthday with a stunning performance of 15 one-minute piano pieces
dedicated to him. (His 15 minutes of fame ;)

Call for Scores
Deadline:
December 31, 2024

Vox Novus is calling for one-minute pieces composed for solo flute.
Selected works will be premiered on Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame with flutist
Lisa Bost-Sandberg in 2025 with an online performance.

Bost-Sandberg performs on a Kingma System® flute. This revolutionary
instrument can be played as a traditional C flute, but it also includes
extra keys, expanding the sonic capabilities. It allows for a more facile
and even quartertone scale, a considerably increased multiphonic
vocabulary, and extensive options for alternate fingerings. Composers are
welcome to embrace these possibilities in their submissions if desired;
traditional writing for the flute is also possible and encouraged.
