Question: What are the monthly composing challenges? - Anonymous
We hold monthly challenges with a given prompt (ex: write a piece based on Penn's "Red and Blue" theme) and give complete musical freedom to our composers. At the end of the month, we reveal our works at our biweekly GBM. Anyone is free to join - it is a fun opportunity to see where our composers take and develop these ideas.

Question: Do I have to be an experienced composer to join? - Anonymous
Not at all! This club is open to anyone who has an interest in composing or wants to see what its like to compose. In fact, we actually have infrastructure in place for more experienced composers to help guide newer composers along their composing journey.
