Announcing the Festival of New Jewish Liturgical Music

Deadline for submissions: March 30, 2004

Shalshelet: The Foundation for New Jewish Liturgical Music seeks to foster
new music for Jewish congregational use and expose wider audiences to
innovations in Jewish religious music. Shalshelet promotes the creation and
spread of new Jewish liturgical music.

Through the annual Festival of New Jewish Liturgical Music, along with
accompanying publications, such as a festival CD and songbook, Shalshelet
provides a venue for composers to share their music.

A musical composition submitted
--must enhance congregational worship;
--must have been written less than two years prior to the Festival; --must
accompany a Jewish sacred text, taking care to capture the spirit and
importance of the text; and --must not have been previously published or
performed at a major music festival.

The application process is open to everyone, regardless of age, gender,
Jewish affiliation, musical background, or professional experience. A music
committee  will review submissions with the support of advisory members.
Submissions may be selected for performance, publication, or both.
