Harry Potter Competition
So, I started a thread earlier about the incosistancy of the Harry Potter scores, and said, let's just pick a new composer! Then people started getting excited...a little too excited? We shall never know. But I am here to give you, a YC Forum member, the chance to go down into history, an eternal glory, and write the opening to the next Harry Potter Film! Or some other piece of music that has to do with Harry Potter and the themes used in any of the movies.


The Rules:
  • You must write a piece for orchestra using a theme that has been stated in the past five Harry Potter movies.
  • The piece can be used as the opening, the end credits, a certain scence, or a certain character's theme.
  • Since there is going to be an absence of an actual film with the music, we ask you to please explain what is going on in the scene, and what specific motifs belong to if being used.
  • You must compose an original arrangement, and not just use the themes and re-ochestrate them. Do something different!
This Competetion will close on September 30, 2007.

If this interests you, and you want to participate, please post below, and I will add you to the list of participants.

If it's of any help, here's a YouTube video of me playing a number of the Harry Potter themes (all of them from the 1st movie) for those not familiar with all the soundtrack:

YouTube - Harry Potter Piano Medley
and a higher quality audio version:

Yea, me too. You are a member, you are welcome to join the competition if you orchestrate it, but we will need a score.

This looks like a lot of fun. Is there a deadline to sign up? I'm not sure if I will have time, but if I do I would like to do it.
