I'll try. EDIT: Wait, I didn't catch the sheet music requirement at first. Nevermind.

Understood. :)

No restrictions at all on the solo? Is this supposed to be improv that one transcribes after performing?

Congratulations everyone! Good work. Now that the competition is over, I feel safer about editing the description of my entry (I wrote it ~2:00am ct initially, right before the submission deadline. ;) ) Here it is, as appearing at CrazyLeaf Games: The song depicts two opposing carriers beginning at a face off, then launching their fighters to fight over the distances of space. A dramatic pause follows a successful bombing run on the enemy carrier, resulting in the following victory presentation. There are three basic motifs: the carrier face off (:04, 4:35), the dia ire motif (1:22), and the tritone jump (first at 0:33). There's a variation on each of the motifs appearing throughout, including a heavily modified tritone jump motif (2:32, 4:07, 5:35). I will be working on this song until I finish it, then orchestrate it. There's just some things you can't do musically on a piano. :) Again, excellent job everyone!

Does the chapter have to do with modes, tonal centers, or something else?

Interesting. If I have time, I'd like to try my hand at this. :)

Nice job, everyone! I've enjoyed listening to all, and so has my family and friends.

Excellent! I'm excited about this one.

Ah! Well, I look forward to the next one. I'm particularly drawn to conceptual music.:)

Bummer, just stumbled across this forum a little too late. ;) How frequently do the cmc comps run? PS. I enjoyed everyone's work, btw.
