this was the email I sent:
Hello!
I'm Noble Kieffer and with this email I'm submitting a show entitled "Accepting Ours" to the composition competition you're running. I thank you for giving me and other composers an opportunity to showcase writing skills in this way!
This show has 4 movements, and they're attached to this email. In those attachments you'll find 3 things for each movement: a PDF, a full-band recording, and a recording with strictly percussion parts only (as some of their parts may be otherwise covered by the nature of MP3 playback)
BRIEF SUMMARY:
As I've stated previously, this show is entitled "Accepting Ours," and serves as an opportunity to express, through a marching show: the difficult journey of finding your own way in life that suits you, and how we must all learn to "Accept" things that we can't necessarily change. Movements 1 and 2 are both excerpts from the mallet duo "Red" by Marc Mellits. His style of rhythmic, yet spontaneous and sometimes even crowded writing helps to portray many people's experience of being thrust into the world which has so many people, places, and possibilities. It then develops a more rhythmic and groovy structure (Mvmt 2,) but keeps the same punchiness as before, showing that even though many people may settle into a rhythm, or think themselves of having overcame the challenge of life, there are always roadbumps and things we may learn from. Movement 3 stops our rapid motion with deep reflection. One can learn and adapt as much as he/she can, but we as a whole must be able to accept things that are unchangeable in order to truly be happy. Movement 4 then picks up the pace, but with a newfound energy, and more concrete, uniform, and powerful chords and ideas. Once we learn to accept things we cannot change about our life, whether it be our past, or the pasts of others, we can truly feel happy and proud of where we are, and where we may go.
SIDENOTE:
If Ameal or Boamemes want stickings for any specific sections, I can send them videos of me playing through certain passages. I didn't write stickings out on every part because of how much more time consuming it would be for me.
I hope you enjoy the show I've worked hard to make,
Happy Judging!
