2024 Halloween Challenge


chopin

Recommended Posts

I have to post this now because I need time to collect submissions, then create the video.

The rules for this challenge are VERY simple:

  • This is not a "Music Jotter" challenge. Use your usual software.
  • Any instrumentation.
  • Length of piece doesn't matter. Just keep in mind for those who write long pieces, I can't audition the entire 20 minute piece 😅
  • Create something that reminds us of Halloween.
  • This goes up on YouTube!

I might rank the pieces from least scary to most scary, or least Halloween-like to most Halloween-like. Or, I might just talk about what elements make up this type of atmosphere. It depends on the types of submissions I get!

Due Date: October 1, 2024

I will certainly participate in this with my future"Distorted Thought 5". I will make it as scary and uncanny as possible. It will be a 5-6 minutes piano piece and I will provide you a recording.

Thanks for organizing this.

Welcome to the community @JohnElive1 and thank you for your submission! I love it!

@Jqh73o, @AngelCityOutlaw, @Ivan1791, as a reminder, we have 20 or so days left before I close this thread out since I have to set aside time to create the video. Also, if anyone else wants to join, you still have time.

 

Thank you for reminding me. In the end I won't participate, I decided to quit composition for a long while and try to start from scratch and hopefully find my artistic voice again.
