Enter the 2011 FFC Call for Scores!

Have you entered the Fifth Floor Collective's second annual Call for Scores yet? You should!

Last year's Call was a rousing success, with nearly a hundred entries from the US and abroad.

The winning piece, by Tolga Yayalar, was performed by Rosie Samter back in February at the Lily Pad Gallery in Cambridge.
