About Friends of the Vox and Emerging Composers 2024:

In January 2024, Friends of the Vox, in association with Dan Forrest Music, invited emerging composers to submit a new work for treble voices. More than 100 submissions were received from composers representing 19 countries and a 50-year age range, writing outstanding new music for treble choirs.

After extensive anonymous adjudication, our judges Dr. James Meaders and Dr. Dan Forrest chose three prize winners. O Oriens is the first-placed entry by Polish composer Anna Roclawska-Musialczyk.
