Area Pieces 2012

[MoominDave]

STY would have been a good choice for 1st section - but it was set for the top section two years ago...

 

[Morghoven]

One wonders if they have any criteria at all - and as JR and I were discussing last night (there's at least one thing you did yesterday, JR) if indeed the first section do get the Flying Dutchman overture this year, all it will prove is that they don't.

And also, if there are criteria, why can't we be told what they are? It would certainly help everyone with ambitions to write music that might be useful for contests.

That would certainly explain the link on Facebook to the Fairey's recording.

That would certainly explain the link on Facebook to the Fairey's recording.

I heard it was recorded again.

I heard it was recorded again.

wouldn't be surprised. The 4th section piece has recently been re-recorded for the areas CD (or so a reliable source told me )

I'd offer very short odds on 'Cross Patonce' for 1st or 2nd section.
