Composers

The Manhattan Brass is active in reading, performing and comissioning new works for brass. We enjoy working with composers and welcome submissions of your works. Please see the following parameters for submmission. Unfortunately, we can not guarantee any type of performance or recording, and we can not return any materials - please don't send one-of-a kind materials. We will contact you after we have read the work, and will offer comments if you so desire. Also, due to scheduling and programming restraints, we can not guarantee a timely reading of your submissions, we can only guarantee that we WILL read your work (assuming parts are included in your submission). Our reading sessions happen from one to four times a year, or as merited.

Please include as much of the following to ensure a positive reading experience for your works:

PARTS - legibility is of prime importance - we can also now recieve parts formated and ready to print in any Finale 2002 compatible formats
SCORES - same as above
RECORDINGS or MIDI-type SAMPLES - in the form of cassette, cd, mp3, or any standard computer audio format

please send these materials to the following address (note: different than main address)
Wayne du Maine
4863 Broadway #3-O
NY, NY 10034

The Manhattan Brass has a long history of working with composers from many backgrounds; from established names to unknown composers early in their carreers. We look forward to finding new and intriguing works via your submissions and to working with you in the future.
