September 6, 201510 yr Oh cool! A new participant I haven't seen before. I'm looking forward to starting this challenge!
September 7, 201510 yr Since it's now past Sunday for everyone, I'll just assign the themes right now (randomly): ChristianPerrotta will get Austenite's theme mk390 will get KJthesleepdeprived's theme danishali903 will get ChristianPerrotta's theme KJthesleepdeprived will get mk390's theme JFTFT will get aranarochel's theme Austenite will get JFTFT's theme aranarochel will get danishali903's theme Some people missed the deadline, so if there are ton of latecomers maybe we do a second separate swap with the next group of themes. Sound good for everyone?
September 7, 201510 yr Author Great! Thanks for the assignment.Austenite, you're mine again!!! Mwahahahahahaha!!! :shiftyninja:
September 7, 201510 yr I'd like to take the time to dedicate this post to one single thing that any who read this thread must not fail to see. ANYONE CAN JUMP IN AND TAKE PART IN THIS. If you missed the initial theme picking thing, you are free to just pick one on your own and use it. In fact, I highly encourage anyone who wants to do so. To organize a second drawing with a deadline would also be possible as JFTFT said. If multiple people submit themes this week, we'll assign those amongst you all. DO NOT LEAVE THIS THREAD THINKING YOU ARE TOO LATE That happened last time to some as well so I don't want it to happen again. This is a very open, very unofficial challenge. There are no deadlines on composing a piece based on these themes. We're all just doing this for fun and personal musical development. No one's gonna rain on your parade if you just pick a theme and use it. Just make sure you post here to let us know when you've chosen a theme or completed a work based on a theme. We want to listen to it and it's unlikely that we'll do so if we have to dig through the uploads section. Putting a link here is much easier to keep track of for everyone. End Transmission
September 8, 201510 yr I've been busy for the past few days, but I think I want to try Christian's theme. But, I hear it my head much faster than he wrote, like a kind of death waltz. I'll try and see if I can come up with any decent theme of my own.
September 8, 201510 yr I got lucky again, with the uber-talented Christian assigned to cleverly twist my theme beyond recognition. Hopefully I'll be able to do likewise with JFTFT's...
September 8, 201510 yr Things came up this weekend and I couldn't come up with a convincing theme in time. However, some of the submitted themes are quite interesting and I'll probably try my hand on some of them unofficially.
September 10, 201510 yr Finished with my partner's theme!! Here's the link: http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/listen/7855/Assigned%20Theme%204
September 11, 201510 yr Since we're partners in this by strange chance, isn't it fitting that mine is the next one done as well? Though mine is certainly not as good, here it is: http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/listen/7859/YCF%20Theme%20Challenge%20No.%204%20%22The%20Return%22
October 5, 201510 yr Author So, here's my work on Robert's theme: http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/listen/7909/Tintin%C3%A1bulo%20(upon%20a%20theme%20by%20Robert%20F.%20Beers) It's quite different from the things I use to compose, but, hey, why not? ^^ :nod:
November 24, 201510 yr I (FINALLY) submit my entry! http://www.youngcomposers.com/music/listen/7996/impromptus/
