Featured Replies

Morivou, as I have already said, I would greatly appreciate if all competitive pieces would appear on a single post (probably from you) when the judging starts. Many Thanks! ;)

    Hey! I'll join the competition too, if that's ok. I have the need to write something in a romantic style again!

    Feels like Tchaikovsky was a surefire winner until Brahms, Stravinsky, Bartok and Mahler signed in as well...

hi all.

last month I have finished my thesis. I thought I could finish it after that, but due to a sad family circumstance I need to bail out. I am sorry.

I have nothing. The theme did not inspire me. Sorry.

Jaap: first, congrats for you finally bringing your thesis to an end. Second, I'm sorry for this family circumstance. Third, I'm sorry that you have to bail out, since I was especially looking forward to what you'd be coming up with.

I have nothing. The theme did not inspire me. Sorry.

Tokke: My third point also applies to you.

I probably shouldn't ask this because it might take the pressure off me (mind you, that would be nice and allow me to get some more sleep than I will otherwise be getting), but is there any chance of a bit of an extension or does this have to be in by midnight tomorrow (err, Sunday at midnight, technically) or else?My composition is complete, so to speak, but the writing and arranging of it are bogging me down.... :(

TJS, due to weirdly large number of drop outs, I can allow an extension of one day.

One day more...

A 24 hour extension would greatly aid me, as well.

All praise to the Buddhist Panda!

Hey, I was planning on writing on the two last days of the month but my final (of the finals) exam got postponed to today. If I can have an extra day I'll work on it and submit it Monday early morning at the latest. Would you allow that? I'd appreciate it!

Edit: By today I mean Saturday.. exam got postponed to Saturday 29th.

Everything is due at the LATEST Monday NIGHT at 11:59 PM. No extension past that. No excuses.

I will be closing everything up in 5.5 hours. :)

Here is mine:

So far we have like... seven submissions?

1) JSands's Nocturne

2) Austenite's Souvenir from Pemberley

3) Muhmuhmusic's Romantic Variant

4) Ananth's Wechsel

5) IAMIvan's Takes on a Given Theme

6) Joshua Harton's Romantesque

7) TJS1977's Un Ballo in Mascara

Ball now in the judges's court.

Am I missing anyone else?

I was just about to add mine...thanks Austenite!

You're nice for rounding them up for me. :)

I'll take 7. That's more than half of the participants who signed up, and there was no bond. So, we're good. Judges will have 5 days beginning tomorrow. I'll send them a PM. Any last minute submissions should be in before midnight in 20 minutes.

  • Author

OK! Time is up. No more submissions. Good number. Judging will begin tomorrow.

So these 7 works Austenite posted are the one? OK, let's deal with them!

The proper score has been added.

I added my scores to the mix....

SCORES WILL BE UP WITHIN A FEW MINUTES!
