The Eu Funded project EU-Terpe (A debut opera for an inclusive Europe) is looking for 3 composers. A call has been organized and the deadline for the application ends the 11th of September.

Composers living in Italy, Spain or Bosnia and Herzegovina can take part in the call (also composers living abroad but with those citizenships), They need to send through the webpage of the project their CV and a previous work. MORE:http://eu-terpe.com/call-for-composers/ 

Selected composers will take part in a Creative Workshop in Sarajevo in October 2017. They will have the oportunity to work together and to be influenced by each other under the direction of Missak Baghboudarian.

Each one of the composers will create a piece of up to 7 minutes of duration that will be interpreted by an international Orchestra in Spain, Italy and BiH. The composers will have the opportunity to attend the rehersal,a 3 days Artist in Residence with the musics in Forlí (Italy) i February 2018.

You should look for the guild of Italian/ Spanish contemporary composers.  These guild exist.  I m not sure there is an BiH one.
In France, the web site of  the French one

http://www.cdmc.asso.fr/

Lots of information and resources there.  I use it when I am looking for a biography.

Contact them to get the information you need on their correspondents in spain and italy.

One thing.  The title of the project can be a little confusing (translation problems, i guess).  We are not looking for an Opera, but for a musical piece for orchestra (7 mins)

Spineur, thanks a lot for the advice.  I have tried, but they are on holidays now ;-)

All, All the help in disseminationg the project would be appreciated
