General Program
$121,000
The Minnesota Composers Forum, St. Paul, Minnesota, received a two-year grant of $121,000 to continue the Foundation's long-standing support of the Composers Commissioning Program in Minnesota, and to initiate a pilot of that program for composers living within New York City. The Forum is one of the largest, and arguably the most active, composer service organizations in the United States. Its mission is to promote and provide for the creation, performance and appreciation of new music. The Composers Commissioning Program recently completed its fifteenth year of grants to emerging composers. The defining characteristic of the program is that composers are empowered to be the active agents of their own opportunities rather than relying on performers or ensembles. The pilot year commitment of $35,000 for New York City composers will allow the Forum to investigate whether the CCP can indeed bridge the two geographic areas and be administered in an efficient and effective manner by one agency.

Dreamlike, spectral and mysterious, Andres' work has a distinctive, nonlinear shape that appeals both to the conscious and the subconscious.
