| 2011 Raabe Prize Seeking Submissions
 Submissions are now being accepted for the 2011 Raabe Prize for Excellence in Sacred Composition. This prize is awarded every two years for a single musical work, published or unpublished and written within the last five years, that reflects a larger history of excellence on the part of the composer. While any sacred piece may be submitted, works that include the voice or voices are preferred over those for instruments alone. The composer need not be Lutheran. The $2,000 monetary award is shared equally by the winner and a musical or ecclesiastical organization chosen by the composer. Submissions for the 2011 prize must be postmarked by August 1, 2010. View the Guidelines for Submissionfor more information.
