What a fantastic chance for composers! A great way to express creativity and network with musicians worldwide seems to be the Fidelio 2024 Piano Composition Competition. I adore the concept of serving as both a judge and a competitor, and the opportunity to get criticism is priceless. I wish everyone who is taking part luck!

Oh for goodness sake - no one cared about it last year, or the year before, or the time before that.

Do we still remember the disaster that was your first promotion here on the site? Let me remind you:

I read the linked post, and it sounds like you and lostinwonder had an axe to grind. 
Do us all a favor and dispense from commenting at all on this post, people can decide for themselves.
If you don't want to participate, then don't. Move on.

You know what... just because your new to this forum, doesn't mean that we'll just waive off your naivety.
There wasn't an axe to grind - there were questions that went unanswered by the user and he failed to clarify any of them.
