Ask a musician if he wants his music to receive radio airtime and he'll likely ask how much money you want. Now CBC is giving local musicians the coveted opportunity to have their work enjoyed across Manitoba Ñ and for free, no less. "Manitoba Music Ñ We Want It All" is a CBC Radio campaign in which musicians across the province are eligible to submit their recordings. All submissions will be made available to CBC Radio One and CBC Radio Two. The music will be reviewed by a panel for the chance to be picked for the Manitoba Music Top Five. Every three to four months, songs featured on the top five list will be: profiled on CBC's Manitoba Web site; featured on shows like Information Radio, The Afternoon Edition, Culture Shock and Arts Encounters; and considered for upcoming CBC concert events like the CBC Harvest Breakfast. Submissions are welcome from Creighton and Denare Beach artists given their proximity to Flin Flon. To submit their work, artists must fill out a submission form and send it in with their music (ideally a CD, but cassette tapes will be accepted). Submission forms and additional information are available online at Winnipeg.cbc.ca
