Hi Everyone,
It's been a minute since I posted a community challenge! It's been a busy time of life for me.
Anyhow, a community challenge is an opportunity for my patrons to put what they've been learning to good use. If you've been around for a while, you know that I am a HUGE supporter of ACTUALLY MAKING MUSIC if you're learning theory. Imagine how silly it would be to learn how to speak spanish, but to never ever have a conversation in spanish. It doesn't make sense! Making music is like having a conversation. It takes practice. Some music is like a long complicated dialogue and other musical compositions are like a brief "how are you" conversation. These community challenges are designed to be a little more informal and quick - no need to write a whole song. Just write whatever you can in an hour or so based on the prompt. Or keep going if you're having fun!
Here is a little online Rothko gallery so you can get a better idea of what his art looks like.
Post audio (or video!) of whatever you write to the community forum.
Have fun!
