Hello, everyone!

I'd like to take a moment to answer some of the questions that have been asked so far! So without further ado...

Q: Do you have to show your face in the video?
A: There is no requirement that your face be shown during the performance, so you are free to either hide or not show your face. Please be sure to show the instrument or set up that you're using for your performance!

Q: Can you provide the sheet music for the song?
A: While we understand the difficulty of playing a song without sheet music, we would like for you all to listen to the music carefully and play it by ear. As the contest rules state "You are free to choose how you would like to perform, arrange, and conclude your arrangement of the song." The goal is not about making the song as accurate to the original as possible, but about seeing how you interpret it and make it your own!

Q: Is digital music allowed or does it have to be played/performed using real instruments?
A: There is no requirement that it must be performed using real instruments. That said, the audio source which you use for the digital music must be original and created by you (you may not use outside music as a base or other samples to build from). With that said, for the video, you could consider recording yourself creating or playing back the digital piece.

We're all looking forward to hearing your entries!
