UO Your Song Now
Ulster Orchestra invites song submissions to #UOYourSongNow.
Our mentor panel includes artists Duke Special and Kitt Philippa, along with arranger/conductor Paul Campbell. They will be listening to your songs and picking their favourites. If chosen, one of the panel will work with you on your song, culminating in the recording of a brand new arrangement of it, which will be performed with members of the Ulster Orchestra.
Your song should be something new - either something that you’ve been working on recently, or something that you have been moved to write in response to this invitation.
If you have a song you would like to share, we want to hear it!
Here’s how:
- You will need a phone, tablet or laptop with webcam to record the pictures and sound (this can be with the phone mic or an external mic)
- Film inside in a well-lit room during the day
- Shoot in landscape aspect - i.e. with the camera on its side, so as the shot is wider than it is tall
