Cramer - yeah only Classical form since his analysis is heavily tied to common practice harmony. But still, it is a great impetus to think how you could apply his concepts to contemporary music.

All, please let me offer a few points of clarification... I currently have a network (that I am still buildling) of University Professors at schools including: USC, Northwestern, Julliard, University of Texas, and a few other smaller schools. They are proactively visting the project and will be viewing the new works - they are also helping this project grow. Additionally, I will very soon be advertising my project on various websites (this is developing and will be active soon). For each work that I highlight, I will make a youtube video to accompany the post. The video will include discussion, analysis, performance, and any footage from the composer that he or she might wish to include. I'm extremely close to a University Orchestra and am working on a tying agreement with them for performances, but where the music does not call for an orchestra I will perform it on the piano as it is discussed. Nothing is asked in return, except for the rights to have your music displayed on the page. Although, I will ask for various things to create your post, including: sheet music, any video footage of yourself or a performance that you might want to include, whatever contact information you might want to include (i.e. name email address, website, etc), and any other requests that you might have in posting your material. There is no preference to length, and the late late romantic style is very preferred. The video posting length will most likely be 10 minutes or less (so if the piece is significantly longer, it will be a summary with a reference to your point of contact where they can get more info). Of course, there will also be a written portion which will discuss the works more in depth. Thanks, Joe
