My bad.

Here's another question: What does "modonic" mean? Couldn't find it in the general dictionary or the dictionary of musical terms. Do you mean "modal"?:blink:

I believe you will have more luck searching for ''monodic'' ...

:DI am pretty stoked this will be fun

I believe you will have more luck searching for ''monodic'' ...

That's better, now I understand. :toothygrin:

Yeah, public demand doesn't rule much here, but it does rule what competitions we do! Welcome back!

Looks like Theme and variations is going to win... hmmm, sounds interesting.

  • Author

POLL IS CLOSED!! A Theme and Variations for any ensemble you wish with no larger than a 6 staff orchestra wins!!!!

Frick. I hate variations. I'd ruther done tat concerto. =[

Oh well, I'll be pressed to come up with something new and ... hmm... will variations be exciting? :huh:

I'll have a hard time working with 6 staves... can't even write for orchestra and piano or harp or marimba... :closedeyes:

Maybe this will change my ways. :w00t:

OR..... hmmm.... small brass choir. :shifty:

So can we start? XD

Do we compose our own theme or do we all have to use a predetermined theme? If the latter, can we change the theme? Alter the rhythm or meter... make it major/minor/another mode...?

*waits patiently for a thread with all the details to be posted*

No LARGER than a 6 staff orchestra. You may have it be smaller. And, I will have a thread with the details up by 12:00 Jan. 1. Sign ups will begin then too.
