SOCIETY of GAY and LESBIAN COMPOSERS
Membership Drive
With this, the fifth consecutive year of the superb concert
series of music by SGLC composers, the SGLC is conducting a
membership drive. It has been five years of stylistically diverse
"music-for-the-ear" performed with accomplished musicality. The
SGLC concerts have been an invaluable performance outlet for its
member composers' music, and the performers have responded to this
music with enthusiasm and committment. Audiences have discovered
a venue for new, consistently interesting music of broad expressive
range and consistent craftsmanship; attendance has grown steadily.
This season, SGLC sponsored the Poetry Project, a dazzling
diversity of different vocal settings of the same poem by SGLC
composers. Earlier this year, SGLC published the second Catalog
of members' compositions and has distributed the Catalog to musical
organizations around the country, fulfilling the Society goal of
disseminating its members' music to potential performers.
