This Week's Pick of the Proms

Can we out 100 new pieces of music for each of the 100 BBC Prom concerts, starting 17th July, 2009?

Last year we rewrote Elgar, Brahms, Bach and Tchaikovsky. This year, we want to write as well as rewrite. So if you have recently composed a piece of music and you wish it to feature as a Promcast, please click here. If your music gets enough hits, it could receive a performance at one of London’s major concert halls.
