Sounds New -

We are pleased to announce the participants of this year's competition, the final instalment of our 3-year International Composer Pyramid project. They are as follows:

• Ioannis Angelakis (Greece)
• Noriko Koide (Japan)
• Stylianos Dimou (Greece)
• Panayotis Kokoras (Greece)
• Wei-Chieh Lin (USA)
• Fabian Santcovsky (Spain)

They will be joined in the final round by our previous winners Benjamin Oliver (UK) and Victor Ibarra (Mexico). Edmund Finnis, who was also named as a joint finalist, will not be participating in this year's project, having been offered a scholarship at Tanglewood in the US - we wish him all the best for the future.
