We are the seeking for best arrangements of a Russian folk song named "Golova Bolit" for string quartet or string orchestra. Applicants can find dropbox link to the recording of Golova Bolit by Peter Nalitch. They should listen carefully to a wonderful music coming from beautiful culture and nature of Russia and try to write it down with their own orchestration preferences and intend to transcribe a never-arranged folk song for classical instruments in the best possible way to save the originality. Note 1: Composers may feel free to be creative but the melody and structure of the piece must follow the original song. Note 2: While the call is intended for string arrangement but other classical instrumentation also will be considered (even solo piano!). Note 3: Tonality and articulations could vary comparing to the recording if the arranger suggests a more expressive articulation that fits the song better than recording. Eligibility: All composers and arrangers are welcome! Awards: 1st prize: $400 2nd prize: $200 3rd prize: $100 Award announcement: July 1, 2017, all applicants will be notified by email. Winning scores will be considered for performance in part of an opera based on Russian novelist, Anton Chekhov's short stories.
