Four composers have recently been selected by the Mizzou New Music Initiative for this year’s Mizzou International Composer’s Festival, which is in its twelfth year and will take place this July from the 26th through the 31st. The composers include:
Ana Paola Santillán Alcocer
Daniel Fitzpatrick
Paul Mortilla
Nina Shekhar
They will premiere new works in addition to the eight composers from last year’s MICF, which did not have an in-person premiere due to the pandemic.
The eight composers from 2020’s MICF are:
Yu Kuwabara
Pascal Le Boeuf
Shuying Li
Celka Ojakangas
DM R (Diana M. Rodriguez)
Niko Schroeder
Andrew Thol
Felipe Tovar-Henao
Depending on conditions, resident composers can rehearse with resident ensemble Alarm Will Sound. Additionally, MICF’s 2021 distinguished guest composers are David T. Little and Chen Yi.
Although two concerts are planned, in case of the pandemic affecting the events of MICF, multiple plans are being considered, such as the festival being in-person to a limited extent, fully online, or instead both to a degree.
