  2. Today
  3. I have am enjoying this competition. 🙂
  4. Hello @MK_Piano I will score your work later today. Stay tuned!
  5. @TristanTheTristan Since this a barque dance, a minute , it is AB (binary). So the A section is tonic (C major) and B section is domiant (G). m3 of the A section, is vi and leads I...this is fine. Then in measure m7, it is V-I and we repeat the A section. We don't transition to the minor!
  6. MP3 Play / pause Minuet I 0:20 1:20 volume > next menu Minuet I > next PDF Minuet 1 Ok. So you have some nice thematic material. Sometimes, like bars 3 and 7 don't make sense to me that much. Maybe explain that? Bar 2's last beat has a straight-forward transition to a minor. It just feels off. The second section was more favourable to my ears.
  7. Melodies Themes Motives Harmony Chords Textures Form Development Structure Time Originality Creativity Score Presentation Instrumentation Orchestration Playability Execution of Given Challenge Taste 7.5 8 6.5 8 8 7 9 7 Review: Form Development Structure Time: 6.5 I score this 6.5 for it was hard to listen to ABA form for 7 minutes. You have to keep in mind that the general listener has short attention span. ABA are usually shorter. But given the time frame that we had to meet...I realize the challenge it was to write ABA. Score Presentation: 8 I score this an 8 for the score looked professional; and if you send this to ensemble they would be probably say yes. Instrumentation Orchestration Playability: 7 There were some interesting spots when the music went into 7 where the division changed every measure. Not to mention that meter of the piece changed throughout You have to count for sure. Originality Creativity: 8 This was truly original concept and your put thought and creativity into. Kudos Melodies Themes Motives: 7.5 In the A section, there was ostinato that held it together. that was interesting, The interplay between flute and oboe grabbed my attention. Harmony Chords Textures: 8 The texture of this piece was not homophonic but polyphonic and borderline polymetric. So there was more independency of the three parts than chorale. Execution: 7.5 It meet reequipment to write a trio and time, but I did not feel it for Halloween. Taste: 7 This is hard to describe. I feel this would be great for concert. Average score: 7.6 Standard
  8. [DO NOT REPLICATE - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED] The last calendar year has seen the most growth in my music writing. In June, 2024, I was given the opportunity to work with the Huntsville Youth Orchestra in Alabama, and their resident composer, Robert Bradshaw. I stayed with them for one week preparing my piece "Mountain Storms and Valley Peace" for performance. (You can listen to the world premiere of spotify!) I cannot express the amount of information I received during this experience. It changed me for the better as a composer and as a musician. So much so, it inspired me to write my first suite for Symphonic Orchestra: Chariot to the Moon, Apollo. Over the course of 5 months from August, 2024 - December, 2024, I composed this five movement-long suite detailing the achievements of man in the conquest of space; specifically, the Apollo Program. If you would like to know more information regarding the work, you can read my notes in the "About" section on page three. ___________ This suite takes about 24 minutes to listen to in its entirety. I have decided to share the entire score, with a watermark added, for your enjoyment and to help with following the piece as it plays. I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments! Thanks for taking the time to look and listen to my composition!

  10. Oh you are correct. It would be 8.5. My math was wrong.
  11. definitely ... ... ... ... ... there is no better answer than that.
  12. Hi, the simple question is, what is your favourite ever piece of music? Mine is this, by the way.
  13. Oh, my favourite scherzi? 3. Ludwig Van Beethoven: Op.2 No.2, Sonata No.2 in A Major, Movement 2 Scherzo in A Major. 2. Frederyk Chopin: Op. 39, Scherzo No.3 in C Sharp Minor. 1. Frederyk Chopin:Op. 35, Sonata no.2 in B Flat Minor, Movement 2 Scherzo in E Flat Minor.
  14. This is so amazing. Is like everything around me stops and suddenly I teleported to the woods. Amazing piece of music. Thank you so much
  15. I think Poland is a nice place, especially in places like Żelazowa Wola and Kraków. It has beautiful landscapes and also nice lakes around the terrain of Zakopane. I also surprisingly visited Warsaw, where I visited the Muzeum Fryderyka Chopina. People are usually quite nice there, too. I checked inside the university and took a few photos of the official Chopin Institute building. It is great! 

    In conclusion, it was a great place to visit. I will be back in 5 years (probably) to participate in the 20th Chopin Competition.

  16. back from Poland!

  17. outstanding!
  18. It feels like a toccata... https://musescore.com/user/96214813/scores/27723544
  19. that's the deadline for judging, and I want to add a score before then. yeah, I've been considering learning music theory because about half of the people on Youtube say you either need to know it, or don't have to know it.
  20. Thanks! ( I would react that, I just can't react more today) I am pretty sure the average would not be 7.4, though. I am pretty sure it would be 8.5. Anyways, (again) thanks for the feedback!
  21. why 5 days? Also, I could give you classes on music theory and these stuff on private chat too. Anyways, I am just going to say, try to write notation next time!
