LDS Commissions
Composers who belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) or any composer willing to address LDS subject matter can apply for an LDS commission.
LDS subject matter would include LDS standard scriptural works, such as the Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, the Pearl of Great Price, and hymns from the LDS hymnbook. Other texts that address LDS theology would also be considered "LDS subject matter."
Composers applying for an LDS commission are to submit a request as to how much funding their piece will require, and for whom it will be written.
Composers seeking General or LDS commissions may not apply for both types of commissions during the same year and should submit no more than one proposal to any program.
