Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can TME perform my music?In theory we accept scores on an ongoing basis, but unfortunately we are not able to review many of them due to time and cataloging constraints. By far the best way to ensure that your music is seen, is to submit your work to our annual Composers’ Competition. We regret that we have to charge for submission, but we are glad that we can “give back” to composers through performances, recordings and prize money.
