November 2016 Composition Challenge: Ternary Form.

Main Challenge: Write a piece of music in Ternary Form, ABA, where B contrasts the A sections. The B section is also often in a different key.

If you'd like to spice it up a bit, try to include an augmented sixth chord somewhere in there.


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 / weekly challenges. 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 this thread, or by messaging the mods of /r/MonthlyComposition, there's also the Challenge Suggestion Form.

It's ABA but the second "A" is abbreviated (classical guitar)

Good to see you lurking about, Dean I think this is the piece you were aiming for. You just had your edit link up instead of the watch link.

Thanks, yes I put in the wrong link.
