Dear all,

Outside the topic of this post, well slightly,  it's really the time to make it plainly a PG section. There is no sense in pretending anymore.

This, not being an official platform, I'll just put this forward. But naturally it could be put forward elsewhere too. If it is really wanted that it is a retro section, then this should be taken under serious consideration; or else it should be admitted that it is impossible to have a retro section.

Yours,

Joose Norri

Dear friends,

At present, efforts are underway to launch WCCT-12 as soon as possible. Apparently, Valery Kopyl will be (or has already been) approved as WCCT-12 Director. To the best of my knowledge, the teams of the Russian Federation and Belarus won’t participate again.

I’ve been asked to solicit proposals for Section H themes, to be followed by voting on the choice of one theme.

So far, only one proposal has been received, from Romania.

I’ve sent a solicitation for themes for Section H to almost 20 addresses, but I believe it makes sense to repeat this solicitation here as well. So if you have for Section H themes, please send them to me (preferably with at least one example). A possible deadline could be January 31.

This will be followed by voting.

Presumably, a PG theme will again be selected, as there seem to be not enough countries where composers publish high-quality classical-style retros. Moreover, although fairy retractors are abundant these days, there are not many countries where such problems are created. But there is no ban on proposing any sort of retro themes.

Yours,

Andrey (Andriy) Frolkin
