We were thrilled with the overwhelmingly positive response for Underscore_A Call for Scores. Bent Frequency received nearly 400 applications of creative and high-quality compositions from all over the world, representing an impressive array of styles. The review of applications was a rigorous and thorough one undertaken by Bent Frequency and our three guest composer panelists, Ken Ueno, Katherine Young, and Matthew Evan Taylor.

It is indeed inspiring to be reminded of the wealth of musical creativity and diversity, reflected in the submissions received for this call.

BF is dedicated to forging long-term collaborations with composers and commits to partnering with one of the selected composers to secure funding for a future commission. This announcement will be made after the concert in February.

Bent Frequency would also like to express our sincerest gratitude to our guest judges. Underscore would not have been possible without their expertise, time, and thoughtfulness.
