Mar 01, 1998 SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA RECORDING PROJECT New Media Magic is
releasing on the A & R Records International Label a series of CDs of
orchestral works by contemporary composers entitled 20th Century
Visions (formerly entitled Bridge to the 21st Century). These will be
distributed by Bayside in North America and made available to
independent distributors for further distribution. All of the works
included will be recorded by the Czech National Symphony Orchestra
under the baton of Maestro Paul Freeman, its distinguished Music
Director. The series will include diverse works, most of which will be
between 10-20 minutes and without soloists. The release date for
Volume I was November 15, 1997. Additional volumes will be released as
the project develops. The major portion of post-production costs will
be absorbed by Media Magic. Additional production subsidy is required
for each work. This subsidy might be made available from university,
corporation, or individual sponsorship, or through a grant. The cost
is determined by length of the work, difficulty, orchestration, and
other factors determinable only by perusal of the score. A tape of the
music is requested in order to determine the suitability of the work
for the project. A ballpark figure for the amount of subsidy required
could range from $3500 - 7500 for a composition of approximately 8 -
15" duration. For further information, please contact: Ms. Joan
Yarbrough Recording Projects Coordinator Czech National Symphony

Fee. Awards. This is a design competition about VancouverUs most

front connected with a pedestrian promenade from Main Street to Kits
Beach, and virtually to Wreck Beach. Vancouver will have the longest
uninterrupted seawall on the West Coast - if not all of North America
- when a new Seawall is built on the shore of southeast False Creek.
