Last month we launched our “Take Your Music Further with Garritan” music composition contest.
In it, we invite contestants to develop a provided musical theme to create a piece of music – using Garritan sounds – that invokes their dream travel destination.
This week instead of shivering in Minnesota, I’m enjoying the California sun at the annual NAMM Show, the music industry trade convention.
