Link to the mashup: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vT6Ha97VWskBsk-cNku_zAmOsaoKhi_r7SOSIELKYxZBqbvKLIcZF-bd7z-0aW8bfwENf8FAU5-FUZb/pub?start=true&loop=false&delayms=1000 (Plays a 30 second snippet of a hard part of every piece in the competition. Sadly, I can't get the slides to transition at a rate faster than 1 second, so it's a bit choppy.
