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
