DrumManTx Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 From facebook: "We are pleased to announce the 2013 Blue Stars Encore Composition Competition! We invite individuals with an interest in arranging and composing music to submit their works to be considered for performance by the 2013 Blue Stars. The winning arrangement/composition will be played as part of the corps' encore repertoire for the season. Please SHARE with your music composition friends!" Details here: http://www.bluestars.org/story.php?story_id=681 Pretty neat idea if you ask me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
normy diploome Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "Suite" idea! I look forward to this. Perhaps the second and third place winners might provide some performance opportunities or revenue sources as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruckner8 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 50 dollars to submit.... lame. still cool though, may give it a go. It's a fund-raiser, not a call for "high art." I might submit multiple entries, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 50 dollars to submit.... lame. I dunno: kind of an original idea for a pseudo-fundraiser. Of course, is it silly for Blue Stars to think that they could make money from a music composer?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general_tsos_chicken2 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 i guess i didn't think of it as a fund raiser, but was thinking more along the lines of cadets submit a show idea thing. That makes sense though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibexpercussion Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 very cool idea!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie1223 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 50 dollars to submit.... lame. still cool though, may give it a go. It's 50 dollars to be evaluated and critiqued by that talented staff since every submission gets feedback. I think it's worth it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranintothedoor Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I'd imagine there are TONS of 20-something composer/arranger FMMs who'd love to get on board with this. :) Not sure I would've charged $50, but definitely worth trying! Great job Blue Stars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphz Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Does anyone know if percussion parts are a must? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
