KcEMA
is currently accepting submissions for programing consideration on an
ongoing basis. For consideration, applicants
must complete the online submission form below. Further submission
guidelines are available upon completion of the online submission
form. You are given the option of submitting materials by mail,
but we much prefer to review work online as a static or streaming
compressed audio file (mp3), compressed video file, and pdf score (if
applicable). KcEMA will also accept submissions made available on
Soundcloud or similar service, or in the case of video, YouTube or
Vimeo. Please include links to all files on the online submission
form. KcEMA WILL NOT, under any circumstances, accept files from
online file-transfer sites such as YouSendIt or as email
attachments.
Categories for submission:
1) 1-4 instruments and fixed media-audio and/or video (up to eight channels)
2) 1-4 instruments and live electronics-audio and/or video. Pieces that
utilize Max/MSP 5, and pieces that utilize freeware will be considered
(up to eight channels)

4) Live Laptop/Interactive works. Pieces that utilize Max/MSP 5, and

7) Music/art involving electronic sound not listed above (submitter

Preferences: KcEMA has a preference for works with a visual
element or live instrument. However, we typically program at
least one fixed media-audio work per concert. KcEMA has limited
access to a piano. Although we will accept submissions for piano,
the possibility of a work involving piano being selected for
performance is remote.
Attendance: Attendance at the event is not required.
Notification: You will only be contacted if more information
about your work is required or if KcEMA programs your work during. You will not be notified if your work is
not selected for performance. If submitting materials by mail,
your materials will not be returned.
Licensing: KcEMA will not rent parts or pay any fees directly to an
individual. We will provide each composer with a PDF of the
program that he or she can submit to ASCAP or BMI.
Performers: KcEMA is interested in proposals from performers
along with composers. If you are a performer interested in
performing a single work or an entire concert, please complete the
online submission form at http://www.kcema.net/submit.html. Although KcEMA’s budget
is limited, funding may be available to supplement performer travel and
expenses. KcEMA is not accepting full-concert proposals involving
the music of a single composer.

“It
[a KcEMA concert featuring Joao Pedro Oliveira] was a unique and
memorable moment and opened up some very interesting dialogues.
It gave me an appreciation and a certain understanding of the
genre. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for these guy’s next
performance.”
