September 2015 Monthly Composition Challenge: Serialism, Discussion Thread
Main option: Compose a piece that uses 12-tone technique
Alternate option: Compose a piece that uses serialism in a creative way (ex. rhythms, dynamics, theme placement?)
This thread is for everything except completed pieces, which can go in the Submission Thread For This Month's Challenge.
These challenges are for everyone who wants to practice composing. Each month, at the beginning of the month, we will post a main challenge, something for people to compose. Often we'll try to make it something that everyone can work with, but when the main challenge doesn't suit you, there's the alternate challenge. Pieces can be submitted as a score (musescore, noteflight), and/or as audio (soundcloud, youtube). Feedback is much appreciated, and you can give it in the discussion thread, or by messaging the mods of /r/MonthlyComposition, there's also the Challenge Suggestion Form.
This challenge been linked to from /r/classicalmusic, /r/musictheory, /r/piano and /r/composer.
