Eddie Harvey Jazz Arranger Award

Named after the famed jazz educator and arranger, and kindly supported by the Harvey family, this award seeks to recognize and give a wider profile to the often-overlooked craft of arranging. The Award is administered by the Company in collaboration with the original trustees.

The Award is open to British residents of all ages. A prize of £1,500 is offered for an arrangement for any orthodox form i.e. big band, smaller ensemble, or any other realistically sized aggregation of instrumentation or voices.

The deadline for submissions for the next competition is 6 December 2024. Please download an application form and regulations using the links below.
