This is the week of the Minnesota Orchestra's annual Future Classics concert, featuring pieces by talented young composers. More details here; there's a Friday night broadcast, too.
The concert is the finale to a week-long Composer Institute presented by the Orchestra and the American Composers Forum.
For the composers themselves, it's an absorbing though grueling week. A couple of them are blogging about it, on the always lively page, NewMusicBox. (One good overheard line: "Well, Vivian, I thought all the composers were dead.")
