Congratulations to our 2024 Aird prize winner, Paul Novak! His piece, entwining, will be performed at Earplay's January 20, 2025 concert at Noe Valley Ministry. Stay tuned!
Earplay sponsors the annual Earplay Donald Aird Composers Competition, open to composers of any nationality and any age. Earplay performs the prizewinning piece and presents a cash prize of $1,000 to the winning composer. The competition honors the late composer/conductor/Earplay board member Donald Aird, an ardent supporter of the creation and performance of new music. Details regarding the 2025 Competition can be found here.
A huge word of thanks to all who submitted to this year's competition, and again, congratulations Paul!
