| ISCM World New Music Days 2011 |
within the 26th Music Biennale Zagreb 2011 in Croatia from 7 to 17 April
A half-century anniversary - 50 years of Music Biennale Zagreb
Deadline for submissions is August 1, 2010
Theme: Mirabilia Memorabilia
With year 2011, New music enters into its ninth decade of slow, but sure "conquest" of new areas and new countries, and marks 90 years of gaining new friends and admirers. Although it "grew-up" and got considerably older in these 90 years, we still experience it as young and challenging, new and fresh, worthy of the effort we make in trying to make it an integral part of human activities, needs and life, worthy of the faith we have in it, all the time helping it to "grow" even more...

ISCM members as well as music publishers and individual artists are encouraged to submit their works according to the detailed instructions and criteria described in the call for works.
Music publishers and individual artists can pay €50 entry fee, for each work by using the online payment system PayPal
