Under the guidance of Composer Derrick Skye, Sounds Promising composition students write a world premiere for Salastina’s Resident Artists. Pieces are then workshopped with the Resident Artists prior to being professionally recorded. Composers are free to use the finished recording as they wish.

Because all aspects of this program — from lessons to workshopping and recording — can take place virtually, Salastina is pleased to continue providing the program to students living anywhere.
Additionally, Salastina is giving priority admission to young composers near the end of their collegiate and graduate work whose career prospects have been slowed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

There is no tuition to participate. All Young Composers receive full scholarships generously funded by Salastina’s Membership program.
