Bewerbungen für „Composer-in-Residence“ und „Ensemble-in-Residence“ (Festival für Komponistinnen in Hartford)

The Women Composers Festival of Hartford invites composers and ensembles to apply for its Composer‑in‑Residence and Ensemble‑in‑Residence programs. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year, but to be considered for the 2028, 2029 and 2030 festival editions the complete package must be submitted no later than 1 January 2027. Applicants may resubmit updated materials every three years. Selected residents receive mentorship from festival advisors, the opportunity to have their works performed by the Festival’s Ensemble‑in‑Residence, and inclusion in festival programming and promotional materials. No application fee is required. The call is open to all composers and ensembles regardless of gender, nationality, or career stage. The residency is based in the Hartford, Connecticut area, with performances typically held at Central Connecticut State University’s Founders Hall.
