The 1st Annual GPO Orchestration Competition

Garritan are currently running a very interesting composition competition for owners of their GPO (Garritan Personal Orchestra) plugin, with the Grand Prize Winner having their work performed live by a Full Symphony Orchestra, plus the gala performance will be broadcast live worldwide on the internet!

There are also many runner-up prizes including a class at the Pacific Northwest Film Scoring Program, sampling software, audio software, notation software, VST plug-ins, MIDI keyboard, subscriptions and more.

Entries must be submitted by the 1st of December 2004. Winners will be announced at NAMM and the performance will take place just prior to Frankfurt Musikmesse 2005.
