Hello. I wanted to make an apology announcement as well as a concept piece so that way I don't leave a score blank. I will be discussing two separate announcements, one that pertains to the Legends Competition and one that relates to another issue.
If you haven't seen, some of my fellow composers have mentioned issues that resided during the 2025 competition planning. At first, I was going to make an announcement on the Legends account, but I wanted to take accountability for myself rather than bringing in the Legends Team. The main issue mentioned was that there was poor management during planning. Unfortunately, this is true and I wanted to apologize to anyone who was affected by the planning issues as well as participants and Legends Team members for my lack of engagement. I also wanted to apologize for showing a lack of care for opinions and constructive feedback. I've been scared to start a competition and make it fair for everyone, which led for me to act impulsively and too strict. This was bad management on my part and the rest of the Legends Team have been so friendly, open, and have helped to manage the competition a lot of times. This was a problem on my part only, and I am sorry. Me and my team have fixed the issues and I am currently allowing my team to plan the competition and I am staying out of it, so I hope the 2025 comp is even better than the 2024 competition.
On another note, I will be creating fewer scores to focus on my personal life. With that being said, I want to thank everyone for the patience and for being supportive. I don't intend on disappearing after this, but please know that I will be taking longer to make pieces and will most likely be in the background of the 2025 competition.
Anyways, I hope that this concept piece sounds good! <3
