In 2009, it is ACL Korea Section. The First-prize winner will be invited by the organizer of the next ACL festival to write a new piece to be premiered by the next ACL festival. No additional commission fee is involved; the prize money may be regarded as the fee. The ACL Korea Section shall inform the first-prize winner of the last (16th) ACL Young Composers' Award Competition Mr. Samuel Holloway (from New Zealand), as soon as possible, the instrumentation of the commission piece, the performance occasion of the coming festival, and the submission deadline.
