Society of Composers, Inc. is pleased to announce the third annual Jazz Composition Competition. One first prize ($500) will be awarded for an outstanding work for jazz band.

There is no fee to submit to the 2020 competition, but all entrants must be SCI members at the time of submission. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, SCI has reduced the cost of a one-year membership for all new and renewing members: full membership is now $30; student membership is now $15, student chapter membership is now $10. Additionally, all new member applicants identifying as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) are eligible for complimentary membership.

Further details regarding the competition, along with the submission form itself, can be found on the New Music Engine.
