SYS65 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I've been wathing the competition threads and I wanted to enter but looks like always is a very reduced stuff, Jose was only for a single voice, now 6 players only, next time try to set a little wider options.

Well, I only do it because I can't judge large ensemble pieces; also, I don't expect a piece of that scope finished within a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j.hall Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Ok here's my submission. Didn't write it for this competition in mind but since the theme was winter I thought I could participate. The title is in swedish and means A Girl In The Snow. Oh, the mp3 is 2:56 long, but I expect it to take 3 minutes if a person played this. Edit: Err why did the mp3 and pdf attachments disappear? :S Oh well I'll upload it from box: mp3: http://www.box.net/shared/mji1zuabte pdf: http://www.box.net/shared/y9e0kqpf49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabiansoldier Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 OK,,, here's my entry! its a short piece for string quartet. When you said "winter",,, I thought "religion", and that was the inspiration behind this particular piece. Composed in the spirit of Ockeghem, Morales and Byrd. Please excuse sibelius' MIDI sounds,,, they really are terrible! Enjoy!

mahler Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 This may not sound very wintery(neither the piece nor the description), but what I eventually came up with whilst thinking of winter was this. "The quest for inner peace in an artists mind, as he looks upon the superficial mind of the masses". It is entitled "Quälerei", which is german, meaning "torment".

IceWind91 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Here's my entry; Winter Fantasy. It's scored for 6 woodwinds; piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 clarinets, and bassoon. This is the largest ensemble I've ever written for. It's a light and cheery take on winter, depicting snow falling from the sky and swirling in the wind. It then shifts to a more peaceful scene, perhaps a winter landscape under the moonlight. Then, the music once again becomes bright and cheery, perhaps showing the same scene in the daylight, depicting the joy winter brings. Some parts of this may sound a little rushed (they do to me, at least). I'll admit, it's definitely not as polished as I would have liked, but the end of the month sort of snuck up on me. :P winterfantasy.mp3 winterfantasy.pdf Sorry for the unrealistic MP3 rendering; it was the best I could do.

benxiwf Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Since the original judging has not been completed, jawoodruff and myself have taken over since we are both chamber music reviewers. I will post results in a separate thread today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
