Entries for The David Harold Tribe Symphony Award closing soon

The David Harold Tribe Symphony Award aims to promote interest in musical composition and to encourage the writing of music in Australia, to help and give incentive to composers and to provide them with additional monetary amounts thus enabling them to further their education in this field. All resident Australian composers are invited to submit a new symphonic composition for the award which is administered by the University of Sydney.

The award valued at $12,000 will be given to an Australian resident who is judged to have written and produced the best original musical composition for symphonic orchestra in three or more movements with a playing time of 20 minutes or more. The work must have been written in the last three years.

The deadline for applications is Monday 26 April 2021.
