Harmony Writing Challenge (Level: Easy)

This is a very easy contest. All you have to do is write the outline of a harmonic structure. It must be similar to binary form in that there are two sections (with a slight pause between each). There has to be solid left hand accompaniment (if you are writing a piano part). You can go all out and use multiple instruments or stick to just the piano (any solo must be for the piano). This is solely a harmony game. We need five more competitors (first come first serve). I'll make the poll after there are enough entries.

A small amount of melody is allowed. You can create a melody that makes the harmony have a little more movement, but not a melody that can very easily stand alone still making complete sense.

Each entry needs to be either in .Midi, .Wav, .Mp3, or .MUS format.

I'll begin my entry now.


After this contest is finished, each competitor may join the next contest which is adding the melody!

I would submit the harmonic structure of the second movement to my symphony so far, but...I don't want to give it away

I'd love to have a shot at this. Not sure I understand though, all I have to do is write some harmony?

With a little melody to go along. (But the harmonic structure is key)

I think I understand. No specified length, time signature or key, only that it has to be in binary form?

It has to be similar to binary form, but it's not being totally stressed. It's much preferred.
