Composition Competition
Due to a very low number of composition submissions for this year’s composition competition, we must regretfully postpone the competition. All submitted compositions will be mailed back unopened to the entrants and email submissions will be deleted. Thank you to those that did submit works for this year’s festival and we look forward to continuing this dimension of GuitarFest in 2011.
