{"value"=>"<p>The BMI Student Composer Awards is an annual competition open to young composers engaged in the study of classical music. The pupose of the competition is to recognize emerging composers of merit. BMI first established the Student Composer Awards in 1951, during the expansion of its classical music repertoire. A group of composers and educators met to create a platform that would recognize superior musical compositional ability and further the classical-music education of young talent. Since its inception, the competition has awarded nearly 600 scholarships to musicians, including fifteen Pulitzer Prize winners, and is widely regarded as the premier recognition for young composers of classical music in the Western Hemisphere. Co-sponsored by BMI and the BMI Foundation, awards totaling $20,000 are determined annually for vocal, instrumental, and/or electronic compositions submitted by students of classical music. All works are judged anonymously by a panel of established classical composers. Winners are honored at an award ceremony in New York City each spring. Past winners of the BMI Student Composer Awards include such luminaries as John Adams, William Bolcom, And John Harbison.</p>", "supress_display"=>true}
