IMPORTANT: Macro analysis is a reductive analytical system which views music via harmonic motion to and from a target chord or tonal center. Its traditional application involves tonal music based upon “circle-of-fifths” root motion. However, this application can be extended to include “non-tonal” music that involves any sort of regular, directed harmonic motion. Visit http://www.macromusic.org for further information. Explain briefly on a separate sheet of paper how concepts and/or principles of macro analysis are involved in your composition. This is a required part of the entry process.

In the event that I am named Winner in the competition, I agree to the following:
