My piano teacher set me a challenge - just for fun, during the holidays. I had an hour and one instrument of my choice. I had to compose a piece of music for that instrument - which required no accompaniment - that lasted no more that two minutes and no less than one. I managed it - much to my surprise - and it is below. I also had to come up with the name in that hour... so it's a bit rubbish :sweatdrop: I just hope the piece isn't!
I put the challenge to all of you! Can ya do it?
'Thela.

o.0 I thought you said you weren't allowed to use accompaniment? Or maybe since you used the piano, accompaniment was implied?

Anyways, for one hour, that&#39;s pretty good. I loved the ending. ^^ I would never be able to do that myself. Too much stress in one hour >< and I&#39;m also a bit of a perfectionist, so yeah, nothing from me. But how about everybody else?

Sheet music can i have it???????

I&#39;ve done it, when I was actually working on a song. Writing it down, though, it what takes so much time.

SHEETS TO IT I WANTthem

Well the Piano was my chosen instrument. I&#39;m publishing the sheet music on Sibelius.com... hopefully.
EDIT: I&#39;m still waiting for the sheets to be accepted. I can&#39;t put a link to the file from here, sadly.

Too bad i&#39;m not a composition wizard like you guys V_V

i&#39;m working on my first ever composition...but the development section is messing my brain up&#33;&#33; argg so frustrated

and my second melody sucks V_V in my opinion ARGGG

Wish you guys best of luck if your composing it within a hour. i&#39;m just gonna take my time :D

Here it is. I call it "An hour in two".

lol.... Well let&#39;s see: my first composition took me 5 months, my second 3 months, and the third is in the works... so I don&#39;t think I could do anything of the such, but I&#39;ll try...

Very nice, how I wish it had accompaniment&#33; ^^

So do I, it was really hard not to split the part and make it a quartet piece in a couple of places. I&#39;ll probably work on having a clarinet quartet version together by next week so you&#39;ll get your wish.

I made Amid the Darkness of the Cave (http://forums.ichigos.com/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=18851) in roughly an hour a few months ago. :) Wanted to see how fast I could make a song that still comes out nicely. :D

Of course, I don&#39;t expect feedback on this. If you want to post feedback, perhaps it is best to look up the thread of my music (entitled something like "James&#39;s Music") and post there.

EDIT: I noticed it doesn&#39;t quite meet the time requirement of a duration of 2:00 or more... oh, well. :P

Wow pimpish stuff. Makes me wanna poop. (that means i&#39;m REALLY excited, in my nostalgic mood) Good stuff

:o

:mellow:

:huh:

::disgusted look:: what the hell? XD

One hour? Let&#39;s see... I made this one in about 45 min; it was a spur of the moment thing (I edited it, of course, later though; there were some wrong notes and stuff. Does that count?):

Sakura&#39;s Theme - Relentless Thoughts (http://www2.hawaii.edu/~yagomich/compositions/sakurastheme-relentlessthoughts.mid)

I subitted this for the first CMA, so some of you have already heard this one.
