The Monthly Composition Challenge

A creative workout for composers of all levels and styles.

Every month I issue a challenge to inspire composers (including myself) to get writing a piece of music. At the end of the challenge, I pick and discuss some of the most interesting entries. Challenges are posted on the first week of that month and are based on lessons from the blog.

To take part, send links of your work (score and audio) by email or post it on the School of Composition Facebook group with the tag #<month>composition (Replace <month> with the actual month for example #januarycomposition or #maycomposition).
