The Ensemble Impronta is pleased to announce a “Call for Scores” for the project “Human Machine”. Composers are encouraged to submit works for any combination of the following instrumentation, ranging from solo to whole ensemble: Disklavier, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, violin and cello. No doublings allowed. We look for a piece that takes into account the mechanical aspect of the Disklavier and the expressive dimension of the human beings, and the possibility to establish a dialogue between these two different features. The selected work will be performed at the Yamaha Concert Hall in Vienna on 20 October 2017. Additionally there is also the possibility for the winning composer to publish his/her work with the Edition Impronta. Any composer is eligible, regardless of age and nationality. Each work must not be longer than 7 minutes. There is no minimum duration. The submitted pieces can be already performed, but they have to focus on the subject of the concert. Submission Guidelines There is an entry fee of 25 Euros for the first work. Additional entries may be submitted for 15 Euros each.
