On one note- I will be judging the pieces based on five parameters-

1) Melodic intrest- Can you convey a melody in a way to let me understand it completely?

2) Harmonic intrest- How intresting are your chords? Fillers? Other noodling that adds to the piece?

3) Progression- how do you take me (the listener) places, and can you keep my intrest?

4) Instrumentation- How do you make use of the instruments that you have chosen? How widely do you use special techniques to keep me intrested.

5) How well does it match the theme (New Years)?

If the other judges are still alive, I advise that you use this system too, so that we are on the same page. If the other judges are here, please leave a comment...?
