$100 REWARD. I purchased the VSL pro edition last summer, but my busy schedule has kept me from really using it and learning it. So, I’ve decided to see if I can learn from those who are smarter than I (which would be just about everyone) by having a little contest. I have written a very short chorale for string orchestra and posted it on my website as an adobe acrobat (.pdf) file. It is a one-page, nine-measure piece scored for violin 1, violin 2, viola, cello, and double bass. Each part has between 19 and 34 notes. Bowing, dynamics, tempo, and articulations are included. To participate, simply record the chorale as an .mp3 and email it to me. In the email please include your contact information. The winning entry will be the one that sounds most like a live string orchestra. I will have my student orchestra at Taft High School, Woodland Hills, CA help me decide which entry is the best. The winner will be asked to provide information on which patches were used with which notes, and if gigastudio was used, what the settings were. I will then send a cashier’s check (bank check) drawn on Bank of America in the amount of $100 (U.S.) to the winner. If you want to participate, please go to the following link: http://burchmusic.com/vsl/chorale.pdf . Entries must be submitted by January 31, 2006. The winner will be announced in mid-February. Send your mp3 to my email: steve@burchmusic.com. If you have questions you can also reach me on my cell at (805) 807-3272 (USA). This could be a fun way to learn from others. If this is a worthwhile experience I will also do one for woodwinds, brass, and perhaps other ensembles.

link to the pdf doesn't work...
That's because the link in part of a sentence and has a full stop after "pdf".........
Whenever I give out a link within text I make sure it stands out on its own and has no punctuation near it.
Click on the link and when you get the 404 delete the period (full stop). Then resubmit the URL and it should work.
