Just like in the first, very successful call-for-scores, the Lowell Chamber Orchestra will select a work to be performed during its fourth season.<\/p>\n<p>However, this time, in conjunction with Universal Edition, the winning composer will also win a way to publish their work with Universal Edition through their web tool scodo for one year &#8211; a value of about \u20ac600. Six finalists will win a voucher with which to publish a limited amount of works through Universal. Scores submitted through scodo can be obtained immediately via the Universal Edition website. Composers retain the large majority of rental fees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very happy with this new cooperation between the LCO and Universal Edition,\u201d says LCO\u2019s music director, Orlando Cela. \u201cThe orchestra provides a performance and professional grade audio and video for the composer to promote their work, so it\u2019s a perfect companion to have Universal Edition also promote the score in print.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Lowell Chamber Orchestra is Lowell\u2019s first and only professional orchestra. LCO\u00a0provides the Merrimack valley\u00a0area with an ensemble that\u00a0presents music at a very high level, of all styles and time periods, entirely free to the\u00a0general population.<\/p>\n<p>Now in its third season, the LCO has presented concerts that encompass <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/BhSCy4ahWRY\">established orchestral repertoire<\/a> as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hbQdKt_sEcc\">multimedia works<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-B96KngoHhA?t=1940\">stage works<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/BpK8wz3LdzA\">lecture-presentations<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/qOCHXV7QqUM\">chamber music<\/a>. As part of its mission of promoting, preserving and educating, the repertoire include works from the Baroque, to current commissions.
