OmarSanchez Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I would like to enter....When is this first picture's competition done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiii1408 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'm interested too. When is the deadline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impresario Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Seems cool! I found something wierd though. Your deadline says end of July, but the first picture choosing rule implies each contest is a week. Which is it? Also, please spell check, there are lots of little mistakes. I think I'll try this out if I'm allowed on. My parents have to recieve my report card first though, so until the tenth, I can not say for certain if I'm allowed to participate.

siwi Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Can the instrumentation be for an ensemble? The picture really suggests something big and orchestral! Also what do you want submitting - pdf score and mp3/MIDI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
