Receipt Deadline: April 1, 2003 Music Omi International Music Residency Program is now accepting applications for the summer 2003 session (July 31 - August 17), with guest curator Scott Fields. Approximately a dozen musician-composers and performers from around the globe will gather for two and a half weeks to share in a unique collaborative music making residency program. A singular feature of the Music Omi artist colony experience is the presentation of a public concert at the conclusion of the program. Performing composers, improvising musicians, and sound artists from all musical disciplines who wish to broaden their artistic horizons and engage actively with other musicians are encouraged to apply. All awarded fellows commit to remaining for the entire residency and to participating in the concluding concert. Everyone accepted to Music Omi receives full room and board during his or her stay. The beautiful Music Omi campus, on 140 acres of rural farmland, is located in the historic Hudson Valley in upstate New York.
