Here here! Nobody should be writing specifically for #cfs. It undermines the value of our industry and allows organisations to get away with paying very little for new rep. #SayNoToLotteryWork
Decided not to push myself to compose anything for calls for scores if I don’t want to, and instead write music that interests me. Will always write for people if asked, but not gonna make myself write music for calls for scores or competitions that don’t interest me!
@JessieMaims They're charging applicants £25 to write 6-8' pieces. Only one #composer will be rewarded for their time. #SayNoToLotteryWork!
@tdrks @gaudeamusnl @Kelley_Sheehan @robdeemer It could have something to do with the application fee (+ "a written statement agreeing to pay a further 500 euros if selected")... #SayNoToLotteryWork @gaudeamusnl #GenderPayGap #ComposerDiversity
We still stand by this. For every winner there are... #SayNoToLotteryWork
As much as we’d like to be able to support this, asking composers to submit pieces for such a specific line-up, with no guarantee that they’ll be played, is not okay. It is very unlikely that composers will have pre-existing (and unperformed) pieces for this arrangement.
How does the high church (@WestminsterCath) justify targeting the pockets of those with less? Some things just don't change. (And yes, they still refuse to comment.) #SayNoToLotteryWork! #ThisIsNotAHobby #CheckYourPrivalege https://t.co/cgd9WtA9Te
@acoustictourist To be honest Ronnie, you're not missing too much with this one. We don't support competitions/calls that ask composers to submit specially-written pieces (i.e. work for free) and we wouldn't advise our followers to enter this for that reason. #SayNoToLotteryWork #ThisIsNotAHobby
We would like to advise our followers not to enter this call. It’s horrible that @WestminsterCath are looking to exploit emerging artists for their own enterprise... you’d have thought they might adhere to some sort of moral code or something...! #SayNoToLotteryWork #WorkNotPlay
@WestminsterCath are looking for a composer to write a new, unaccompanied choral motet, setting a particular text (for performance during the offertory) to mark the 60th anniversary of George Malcolm’s recording of Tómas Luis de Victoria’s settings of the Tenebræ Responsories.

Have you made a rule to only apply to calls that are free to enter? #ComposersUnite #ComposerDiversity #SayNoToLotteryWork #WorkNotPlay

@mwhiteside @NewOlyver @SimonPatonBass @YfatSoulZisso @DurhamComposers @JasperDommett @WeAreHera @ForEveryWinner @thenightwith I've made a rule to only apply to calls that are free to enter. Since deciding this I've had far more pieces played, gig opportunities and acceptances (including @thenightwith) and I am always happier with the work I produce because I didn't have to pay to compose it
@NewOlyver @YfatSoulZisso @hutchingsmusic @mwhiteside @SimonPatonBass @DurhamComposers @JasperDommett @WeAreHera This is one of the things we're deeply concerned about... you wouldn't find players for this gig and @WeAreTheMU would back them. It's harder for composers to develop the same confidence and calls like this take advantage of that. #WorkNotPlay #ComposersUnite #SayNoToLotteryWork
Another fantastic opportunity... for the rich. #DiversityInComposition #Blinded #SayNoToLotteryWork https://t.co/Gh8H0eyHqG
@michael_cryne It's mean-spirited and unfair, as is the request for composers to submit new pieces with no performance guaranteed. This model is backwards... Find composer(s) first, then get them working. #SayNoToLotteryWork #ExploitingArtists
€80 to enter!? We cannot endorse this. #ComposersUnite #SayNoToLotteryWork #ScuolaInternazionaleMusicaleDiMilano #ExploitingArtists #EnoughIsEnough https://t.co/R0YguZb9eJ
It is a privilege to be able to put out a call for scores, receive a multitude of responses, and then choose which piece(s) to play. Under no circumstances should composers be paying fees to provide organisations and/or individuals with this privilege. #SayNoToLotteryWork
@newmusicbox @alex_shapiro @alex_shapiro we're utterly fed up with them too! #ComposersUnite #SayNoToLotteryWork
@AndrewNogal @MattSComposer @scottblasco @michael_cryne Because it is a privilege to be able to put out a call for scores, receive submissions containing brand new music, and then get to choose which to play!! #SayNoToLotteryWork #ComposersUnite
