Submit your music

Composer’s Toolbox is looking to feature music composed by living composers as music reviews on https://composerstoolbox.com/. Each review will be featured on the homepage of Composer’s Toolbox and will be promoted on social media.

After hundreds of reviews showcasing great music by bands, solo artists, composers, and other musicians that was submitted without a score, this endeavor pivots to focus on notated music, whether by score, lead sheet, or in the case of acousmatic music, detailed textual notes. Graphic and nontraditional scores are perfectly acceptable; please no screen captures of DAWs, though.

The goal is to promote the creation of composed music in today’s society and provide feedback to composers.

Submit your music only after you have read the instructions below.
