The Commission will award $10,000 for the creation and presentation of a new work to be broadcast on PBS and premiered at the 2015 Melbourne International Jazz Festival (MIJF).

The Commission aims to support composers already actively engaging with audiences, and provides a platform to nurture the future of contemporary jazz composition in Victoria. Both PBS and the Melbourne International Jazz Festival are delighted to be able to support the award which also receives the generous support of Mark Newman.
