COMPOSER COMPETITION 2005 |
To mark the 30th
anniversary of "Captain Fantastic", an album which makes lots of references to
Elton and Bernie's writing partnership in its early days, we had proclaimed
the Hercules Composer Competition 2005.
You all know "Dogs in the
Kitchen", a poem which is included in the "Captain Fantastic" lyric book,
but which has never been recorded by Elton. We were aware that there are many
talented piano players and ambitious songwriters amongst Elton's fans. So we
asked them to fill this gap after 30 years and compose music to this wonderful
Bernie lyric.
Following are all entries that we
have received in the ranking according to 692 votes, most of them casted
online. We would like to congratulate the winner Giorgio as well as all
other contestants.
