So hard to pick one! Considering I found out about the contest 1 day before entries were due, I'm absent this time around I'm definately going to give it my best next time though.

Very hard to pick one. A couple of these really jump out at me. No. 1 was so different from the way I heard it yet it seems to fit so well. So far this is ahead and I can understand why. Number 6 is the closest to the way I heard it in my head when I first heard the theme and yet it is still very different. I’m sure the composer of it wasn’t thinking along these lines, but no. 6 sounds to me like a lost scene from Close Encounters of the Third Kind, maybe as the mothership is departing, giving it’s final message through music – “’Bye you turkeys. We’ll be back in a few thousand years to see if intelligent life has emerged on this planet yet.”

This is what I love about music. You have one thought (musical idea) and from it springs a multitude of emotions and mental images just by the way the motif is handled. I loved no. 6 because it reminded me of an Elliot Carter Quintet that I once played...energy, energy, energy!

But, no. 7 blew me a way with passion, anxiety, gentleness and a touch of intimacy...WOW

Great presentation all of you. I enjoyed each one for what was offered from the composer to us.

Looks like every piece now has at least one vote! Which is a great way to tell the voting is terribly difficult. I still can't decide . . . I keep listening to them again and again, and almost all of them get stuck in my head. I don't know how I will decide!
