Competition: Original Work for Theremin and Piano (prize = recording!)

That's no problem - it would still be wonderful if you completed it.

A note to all entrants:

There may be some delays to judging, as I've come down with the flu. The three judges (myself included) aim to have come to a decision by sometime later this week though.

Don't worry about it

Will there be a winner any time soon?

I am SO sorry not to have judged this competition sooner. I have *not* forgotten about it, but a few life events have prevented my being able to announce a winner. This was also the reason for my total absence from the forum over the last month. I intend to hold true to my word to make a recording, but I daresay it will take longer than expected. The results of the competition will be announced shortly, but since I start University next week, a recording probably won't be on the agenda until nearer Christmas.

Once again I apologise. All the entries received were wonderful. If no progress is made, please nag me by PM.

After much deliberation, Katy, Stephen and I have made our decisions regarding the winners of the competition. If we'd been able to announce a joint first prize, we would have done so, but in the end decided it would be unfair to guarantee two recordings when only one might prove possible.

Thus, winners are as follows:

First Place: RavingSpleen
Runner Up: Nikolas

It is my intention to Nikolas' work also over the coming year if at all possible, and hope to have finished a recording of RavingSpleen's entertaining, multiple-movement work for theremin before Christmas. Thank you ever so much to all who entered. I hope you enjoyed composing for the instrument.

~Judges' comments will follow shortly~
(Sorry for the further delay - I'm absolutely swamped by University forms - I leave on Tuesday!)
