This sounds amazing! Does it have to be submitted with notation as well or is just the audio ok?

At this point in my life I have basically zero prospects of becoming a composer professionally (despite having almost finished my degree in your old music department!) because of the social issues, autism, social anxiety, etc. which I have that prevents me from doing the networking and social side of being a composer. I’ve hardly had my music performed due to this reason. Nevertheless, I am extremely interested in choral composition, especially sacred choral music, bringing my Ashkenazi Jewish heritage and culture into the many other inspirations that I have. My music isn’t as ‘dissonant’ (what does dissonant even mean though…?) as the vast majority of professional composers today though; I like to think of my style as somewhere in between between Bach, Poulenc, Bob Chilcott and Kristina Arakelyan. Your channel has always inspired me, yet I have been unable to incorporate your techniques and ideas into my own work because of the rigid way that my autistic brain works. It’s as if I can only compose what my brain wants to compose, very intricately and at a very slow pace, so I dont know if this opportunity would be for me? What do you think? (My work that I have uploaded on this channel is not my best work by the way! I just havent had time to upload my stuff here for a while)

Any future opportunities with aspiring composers elsewhere in the world, especially North America?
