ILMEA COMPOSITION TRACK
​ 


The All-State Composition Track allows exceptional student composers

to work with active composers and artists, and collaborate with other

composers at the Illinois Music Education Conference in Peoria. This

program also allows them to network with publishers,

colleges/universities, and performing musicians from Illinois and

across the country.


The Composition Track is open to 10th-12th grade honorees in the

annual ILMEA Composition Contest (1st, 2nd, 3rd, Honorable

Mention). Past session topics include: Writing Effective Melodies,

Collaborative Songwriting, Workshopping Compositions, Introduction

to Harmony and Counterpoint, Score Preparation, and College & Career

Roundtable.


When submitting entries in RNS, teachers should indicate if eligible

students are interested in attending the Composition Track at IMEC

2018. Once the list of honorees is determined, information (and

applications, if the numbers are greater than 20) will be sent to

interested students. Any questions regarding the Composition Contest

can be directed to Gina Wych at jsgm@ilmea.org
