Music of note
Scotland’s national orchestra is running the second composition competition specifically for 12-18 year olds based in Scotland. Notes From Scotland invites young composers to write a two-minute work for an instrumental trio, quartet or quintet. The theme for the second Notes From Scotland is inspired by Scotland’s contemporary architecture. Five finalists will be selected with their compositions being performed and recorded by members of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. The winner will receive an iPad with music software packages included, as well as VIP access to RSNO concerts. www.notesfromscotland.co.uk
