Symphony Number One performs at Light City Baltimore, April 2016

The deadline for Call for Scores 3 has been extended! We will accept applications through 11pm EST on Sunday, July 3, 2016. Winners will be chosen for performances to take place during our 2017-2018 Season.

At Symphony Number One, we vigorously promote the composition and performance of substantial works by emerging composers. Selected composers will be invited to write a new work for chamber orchestra and chamber ensemble to be rehearsed, performed, and recorded during the 2017-2018 season. 

Three winners will be chosen; the three works will be programmed, one each, across two concert cycles of Symphony Number One's 2017-2018 season and one concert in SNO’s Beethoven’s Kitchen (chamber music) series.

A number of additional opportunities for commission and career advancement may be possible. For more information, visit:
