Alkali Collective invites emerging composers connected to the Atlantic Canadian provinces to submit their chamber works to the ensemble’s second annual Call for Scores initiative. Eligible applicants are emerging and early-career composers of any age who are current residents of, were born in, or have completed a substantial portion of their musical education in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador, New Brunswick or Prince Edward Island.
