Offer your singers new music, motivation in every rehearsal, and clear evidence of academic & artistic growth—at a fraction of a traditional commission.
Join the Consortium Learn more & hear a previewToday, conductors and universities naturally strive to provide new experiences that bring growth to their students, but individual commissions are expensive and often difficult to justify.
Odes of Love is an international consortium where several choirs join together to co-commission three original works in collaboration with living composers.
Premiering new music always brings extra excitement. Today, while scheduling a virtual rehearsal, my friend Nathan Windt from Ambrose University told me how motivated his students become when they can work directly with a living composer—imagine doing that with three composers!
“Our students really enjoy meeting composers, especially living ones.”And Christopher Clark (Case Western Reserve University) and his choir were so happy with last week’s preview that they posted an Instagram story proudly announcing they had joined the consortium.
You’ll be able to offer your students a new, formative, and more affordable experience than a traditional commission—delivering real artistic growth and the pride of being forever linked to three international premieres.
