Orchestration Challenge #17!!

[DanielB]

Everyone...

It's time for Garritan Orchestration Challenge #17!!!

As the winner of the previous challenge, I'm privileged to provide the next melody for Challenge #17. I wrote this theme a month or so ago. Tried orchestrating it, failed miserably.... Now you try!! It's really simple, but hey, simplicity means versatility, right? I can think of a number of different chord progressions, genres and such to go with this. Here are the files, including a *.sib file to start with for those of you that use Sibelius.

MID | MP3 | PDF | SIB

My suggestion for the deadline is June 1st, a six week period, but it's up for discussion.

Please submit your entries to danieljbayot(at)gmail.com. (Replace the "(at)" with "@".)

Have fun!!!

Thank you for providing the melody. I think I'll give this one a go. I've already started and I've got some good ideas.

[DanielB]

I got my first entry.

Keep sendin' them in, folks!

[DanielB]

I gots my second entry!
Anyone else??

12 more days until the deadline!

[DanielB]

Uh-oh,

2 days till the deadline and only 2 entries!

How 'bout an extension? One week? Two weeks? Can someone come up with somethin' within that time?

[Cransworth]

Haha. I had totally forgotten. Oops....

Maybe a week or two would be helpful. Two would be best....

[wrayer]

Mines on its way and I hate extensions!
