SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT
Before submitting any CD's for broadcasting consideration, please check requirements and contact Marvin Rosen with information about the CD (to avoid duplicates) and for his mailing address at: Marvinarosen@gmail.com
 Only new music recordings (late 20th and 21st century) will be considered as well as lesser known repertoire from before 1750.
No consideration will be given for any recordings containing standard repertoire.
No consideration will be given to any type of electronic media.
For security reasons any e-mail with links that cannot be confirmed by search engines will be deleted.
| If you are sending a private/non-commercial recording:
Non-commercial recordings are accepted as long they have good quality sound and are on CD (no MP3 and DVD's);
You must have the name of the composer, title, and timing marked on the CD
all information including performers, short composer bio, brief notes about work, website and e-mail address should fit in the CD tray.
CD should be placed in a plastic CD case to prevent scratching. (CD with scratches will be discarded)
If you are not the owner of recording a broadcast release form should be attached. Can be hand written and have following information: Composer, name of work(s), performer(s), printed name of person(s) that is signing release form, signature(s), date and specify that this is for a broadcast on Classical Discoveries.
Do not send any additional materials like posters, booklet, promotional materials etc and any additional information that one can obtain from a website, besides listed requirements for CD tray card.

Submitting a recording does not guarantee broadcast. If your private recording will be chosen for broadcast you will be notified by e-mail
Unused CD's will be not returned to sender, except if a prepaid envelope is attached.
Due to the large volume of requests, the host of this program does not preview or review any music presented through various sharing music sites, downloads, e-mail links, etc. as well as hard copies.
Any request for this will be dismissed.
If he likes the music he will present it on the air. This should be considered as his personal endorsement.
Please read this and try to understand why I exclude electronic media from submissions.
Since the new way of sharing music is done often by electronic media I would like to explain why I do not accept most downloads.
Classical Discoveries is an independent program and all of the equipment I use belongs to me. I also work full-time (not radio related). I do not have a tech person making sure that everything is safe for me to use. I have one computer and no laptop and accepting downloads is very dangerous. I have actually received a number of downloads with vicious malware and viruses in the past. I cannot afford to waste my time and money from removing them from my system.
