Quoting Chuckk Hubbard badmuthahubbard@gmail.com:
Does this include non-acoustic electronic works? If the only category open to pure electronic pieces is the club music category, that seems kind of limiting. The only instrument that can play my tunings is the sequencer I wrote in Pure Data, and my sonata is definitely not club music.
The key is 'Electroacoustic works with and without performers.' In this context, 'Electroacoustic' means pretty much anything involving electronics in any way. Typically, we have three or four concerts which take place in a concert hall or auditorium and consist largely of works involving live performers in some way. In addition to those, we have a couple of concerts for works on fixed media which take place somewhere equipped for multichannel playback. Sometimes these happen in a traditional concert hall, but we have also held them in gallery space. Depending on what we have to program, these get mixed up together as well. All of this counts as concert music, so by all means submit your works.
Best, Michael
Awesome. Will do. I never actually looked up "electroacoustic", I always figured it meant performers and computers together. Thanks.
