Distil are looking for submissions to write for our annual Distil Showcase. It’s a great opportunity for musicians who have attended a Distil Residential Course to work with and write for the fab Mr McFall’s Chamber. The rehearsal week is 27th – 30th March 2017 and the concert is on Friday 31st March in Stirling Tolbooth. In your idea you can write for any mixture of the quintet but this year we are looking for two or three pieces that only use the trio of violin, viola and bass. For those of you who would like to write for the complete ensemble there is also a great flute player available and you can also add a folk instrument – fiddle, bagpipes, vocals etc to your lineup. Any questions get in touch info@handsupfortrad.co.uk.
Deadline for submissions is Friday 13th January 2017. Please fill in the form below with your idea.
