Composers Forum is a daily web log that allows invited contemporary composers to share their thoughts and ideas on any topic that interests them--from the ethereal, like how new music gets created, music history, theory, performance, other composers, alive or dead, to the mundane, like getting works played and recorded and the joys of teaching. If you're a professional composer and would like to participate, send us an e-mail.
Record companies, artists and publicists are invited to submit CDs to be considered for review. Send to: Jerry Bowles, Editor, Sequenza 21, 340 W. 57th Street, 12B, New York, NY 10019
If you're coming into the Composers Forum directly, be sure to see Frank J. Oteri's piece over on the front page. He's wondering why there is so little reaction, pro or con, to Steven Stucky having won this year's Pulitizer prize. Don't we care that a real composer and not Justin Timberlake won?
