EASTWEST SPONSORS 'SCORING' CONTEST

In it, a seed sprouts into a plant, and as its leaves mature, they eventually fly off in all directions. One leaf meets another and the two fly around in a mating dance, eventually merging. The merged leaves become mature wings, and fly off through this new world to find the original void from which they came. The wings finally dissolve and compact to become a new seed, completing the cycle.

The score should have a wide variety of pace, mood and style and must be composed solely with sounds from libraries distributed by EastWest. Submissions can be posted to the EastWest site, where Alexander and the EastWest staff will select a winner. 

The winner, who will be announced on July 15th, will receive all seven Play products from the company. This includes: Fab Four, a virtual instrument inspired by the sounds of the Beatles; Quantum Leap Pianos, a detailed collection of the world's finest grand pianos; Quantum Leap Gypsy, a collection of detailed Gypsy-style virtual instruments; Quantum Leap Ministry Of Rock, a huge collection of rock drums, basses and guitars; Quantum Leap Voices of Passion, a virtual instrument of ethereal, passionate, flowing, mysterious, wailing and whispering alto and soprano voices of female vocalists; Quantum Leap SD2 - The Next Generation, a stunning collection of acoustic percussion instruments; and Quantum Leap Goliath, which includes 40GB of content covering all musical genres.
