We are delighted to welcome Vancouver-based composer Rita Ueda as our Composer-in-Residence for Sonic Boom 2024!

All BC composers are invited to submit new works written for the two Calls open this year:

  • Featured Ensemble-in-Residence: Saxophilia Saxophone Quartet (4 saxophones);
  • Featured Artist: Sarah Kwok – Solo Viola.

Live concert presentations of selected works will occur during the concert portion of our Sonic Boom Festival.

Deadline for submissions is Friday, December 8, 2023 at 11:59pm.

As in previous Festivals, composers may choose to compose works for one or both of our Featured Artists. Composers may submit up to two works for the Festival. If selected (see below) a maximum of one work per composer may be performed.

Open reading sessions for pieces chosen for each Featured Artist concert are planned for early February, 2024.
