Music Alive, a program that pairs composers with orchestras for residencies ranging from two weeks to three years, has announced its 2006 selections.
The program is a joint effort of the new-music organization Meet the Composer and the American Symphony Orchestra League.
Some of the most prominent young composers in the United States will participate starting next year. Jennifer Higdon and Daniel Kellogg will both spend three years working with the Green Bay (Wisconsin) Symphony Orchestra; Chen Yi has been paired with the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra for three years.
Those chosen for short-term residencies include Roberto Sierra, who will work with the Puerto Rico Symphony, and David Lang, who will collaborate with the Deleware Symphony.
