From 13 composers around the state, the panel of judges from American Composers Forum selected five composers to spend a Workshop Day with charter ACF member and composer Carol Barnett.

The composers also had their works performed by violinist Can Canbolat, cellist Rosalind Leavell, and pianist Francesca Tortorello.

Two Featured Round composers — Ava Heubner and Riona Ryan — were selected to have their work premiered live on stage (and on the radio) as part of the Showcase Round at the Fitzgerald Theater on April 27, 2014.
