listings are misleading or not clear enough!

Post by brindabella » Wed Aug 05, 2009 10:34 am

This is the first time I complain about a listing or a return. I can understand a return for being off target if the listing said Blues and I submitted Rock or whatever, but this listing called for Classical Composers ( and I assume that means Classical music for any instrument). I submitted several piano pieces and they were returned because they were not Orchestral pieces. I would like to know where in the listing it said that what they wanted was Orchestral pieces? If Taxi knew that was what the client wanted why not phrase it like that? With a listing like that, even Chopin would have been returned since what he wrote for Orchestra was zilch. It also said they wanted ARTISTS and that you could submit public domain pieces. One return said that while the piano playing was impressive, the writing was not ( public domain piece). Am I stupid or I do not know how to read? Y090707INCLASSICAL COMPOSERS are wanted by the VP of an Independent Record Label who specializes in Classical, Jazz, Broadway, Ballet and Opera releases. They are looking for new talent to add to their catalog which already includes many internationally well-known artists and composers.
