We’re searching for 3 talented young blind or vision impaired composers to work collaboratively on a new choral work that will be premiered alongside The Vision Symphony in Galway on Easter Saturday, 16th April 2022. Applicants should have some experience of composing (in any style of music) and the 3 selected composers will receive monthly mentorship over Zoom from Dave Flynn and in-person mentorship by Irish Memory Orchestra members during the rehearsal week from 12th-16th April 2022. Travel, accommodation and food expenses to attend the premiere performance in Galway will also be provided.

Eligible composers must be:
-        Aged 10-24
-        Blind or vision impaired
