Note 1: The programs have been developed using the timing for your work that you provided to the database and which was checked against your submitted materials.  Please appreciate that the allocation of time for rehearsal, sound checks, setups, and performance is of critical importance to the flow of the entire conference.  Revisions cannot be made to works resulting in an increased performance time.

Note 2: The deadline for receipt of all performance materials, and performer biographies is January 21, 2018.  If you are providing performers, you must provide their biographical information, even if you are certain they are performing for another composer.
