We just received word! Red Cedar Chamber Music has received a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for FY14. The grant funds our Rural Outreach Concerts program in rural Eastern Iowa communities in the 2013-14 season.
The Augustine Foundation awarded Red Cedar Chamber Music a $15,000 grant for programming and to fund the commission a new trio for flute, guitar and cello by composer-in-residence by Michael Gilbertson.
We are thrilled to announce the winner of our first-ever composition contest, Ryan Jesperson. We will premiere his work, "Hebdomas Squatinae", at the joint WMTA/CSMTA conference in Fort Collins, CO on June 7, 2013. Thank you to all who participated!
