August 11, 201312 yr Here are a few themes, someone requested some themes to work with in the SB. May as well post here for posterity (get it? nvm) The challenge is to write a sonata. Piano is the default but any instrumentation is okay. Edited August 12, 201312 yr by p7rv
August 12, 201312 yr I would consider doing this - but don't take me on my word just yet, since I'm somewhat drained out and have perhaps a few commitments too much.
August 13, 201312 yr Author So does it have to use those themes? I'm guessing not but thought I'd ask. It would be a good idea to use those as opening themes. ;) Feel free to choose a different key/ change the last half bar of what's given/ add an intro/ whatever else you feel like doing
August 14, 201312 yr It would be a good idea to use those as opening themes. ;) Feel free to choose a different key/ change the last half bar of what's given/ add an intro/ whatever else you feel like doing I assume that changes in register are also fine? Are you also composing your own sonata for this challenge p7rv? Edited August 14, 201312 yr by Sonataform
August 14, 201312 yr Author yeah of course. I will commit to completing any of the themes to prove that it's possible if I am challenged (like if someone says it's impossible to harmonize or continue or whatever). Beyond that, if the fancy strikes me, I guess. Johnbucket asked me for a sonata theme in the SB, so he might be doing one too, but I have no clue whatsoever if that will come to fruition.
August 22, 201312 yr I'll get the ball rolling. I composed a movement based on the first movement theme. Cheers http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/5234/sonata-in-c-on-a-suggested-theme-mov-l/

September 10, 201312 yr Sorry, a little late to the party: http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/5354/divertimento-for-p7rvs-sonata-competition/
September 10, 201312 yr i saw this just now. is it to late to add my submission within a few days from now?
September 11, 201312 yr The submissions so far have truly been a glut of delights. I am in the process of compiling notes, and so far, it has been tremendously interesting. is it to late to add my submission within a few days from now? not in the least. There's no deadline, really, so the only time pressure is to do it before other entrants use up all the good ideas
