The American Music Research Center invites CU Boulder student musicians to apply for the Alex Craig and Christina Lynn-Craig Living Music Award. This bi-annual award is open to both undergraduate and graduate students and supports the performance of compositions by the late composer Alex Craig, housed in the AMRC Archive in the Norlin Library’s Rare and Distinctive Collections. A finding aid for music housed in the Alex Craig Collection can be found here. Applications will be accepted until April 7, 2023.
This award comes with a $1,000 prize and supports work that takes place between June 2023-April 2024. After completion of the project the award winner is expected to submit a short report summarizing the work and research accomplished.
Activities eligible to receive this award include:
Public performances or recitals of Craig’s vocal, instrumental chamber, choral, or orchestral music.
Recording projects of all kinds related to the above in the coming year.
