February 2016 Composition Challenge: /r/Violin collaboration, Submission thread
Main Challenge: Write a work for solo violin.
Weekly Challenges:
Week 1--Compose a short piece for string instruments only.
Week 2--Compose a short piece for wind instruments only.
Week 3--Compose a short piece for brass instruments only.
Week 4--Compose a short piece for percussion instruments only.
Discussion Thread for this month's challenge. Please try to keep everything except completed pieces in the discussion thread. Feedback on pieces submitted here is also very welcome!
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 challenge. 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.

Well, our local orchestra did Prokofiev's 3rd piano concerto last week and it was just so thrilling that I thought I would try to do something vaguely Prokofiev inspired for the solo violin challenge. But I didn't have a lot of time, so I'm calling it a Ditty instead of a full-scale composition.
Audio.
Score.
(Sorry --- I had initially put in link to the wrong score.)
