But that was what they asked for....PUBLIC DOMAIN CLASSICAL PIECES a la Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, etc. are needed by an Independent Record Label for a "wacked-out" Classical Box Set project for kids that they are currently working on. This company has signed dozens of TAXI writers for use on projects distributed by Sony/BMG, Universal, EMI, etc. They would like to hear interesting and unusual renditions of classical compositions and are willing to consider almost anything that is off the beaten path. Some examples they gave are jazzed up versions of a Bach Prelude or Fugue (a la Claude Bolling) or a saxophone quartet (with or without a rhythm section) or a rock version of a movement of a Mozart piece. Please Note: They are willing to hear original or non-public domain pieces like Rachmaninoff, but really prefer known composers. If you submit originals, they must be outstanding and have the quirky edge the company is looking for. Master Quality is necessary for this one, though great home recordings should be just fine. Please submit one to three instrumentals online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI and must be received no later than Thursday, April 16, 2009.

I am sorry if my Prokofiev rendition hurts your sensibilities. If you listened closely, you would see that the music itself is the same, nothing is changed, just the concept. Art is evolution too. To me is more "healthy" to have children listen to "modified" versions of Prokofiev, Mozart, Wagner, than listening to songs with 4 letter word lyrics. And yes, I would also like to laugh all the way to the bank like Liberace, who murdered Chopin a thousand times!

you are so misled if you think you would make any money on this music brindabellathis is a loss leaderi understand you put a lot of time and money into the software you used to create this, and the fees you pay here - as a lot of people do herebut what would you really expect to make monetarily on this if this actually got presented in some form??this type of track pays at most $100 if it ever sees the light of daythat is no success story, and it simply degrades a genius composers musicare you happy with that?we all need to be "green" your original music is very nice, why do this
