Symphony V Phase 2


Hello and welcome to Phase 2 of Symphony V. With the first phase complete, I am updating you with a finalized idea of what the second phase of this project will be.
Starting on April 9th I began composing 14 melodies, one melody per day. Each was a minute long and used a different time and key signature. 
In a slight change from my original concept, I am going to take the 14 melodies and combine them into 4 symphonies. The symphony groupings were chosen using a random number generator to keep things impartial. 
I will compose each symphony within 7 days, dynamics and all.  Each symphony will be approximately 5-10 minutes long.  The melody groupings are as follows:
Symphony 1: Melodies 7, 10, 1
Symphony 2: Melodies 14,11, 13
Symphony 3: Melodies 8, 9, 12, 2
Symphony 4: Melodies 5, 4, 3, 6
I will be keeping a daily blog post during the composition of each symphony.  On the seventh day I will post an audio clip along with the score so that anyone interested may critique each piece.
My goal, once the symphonies are completed, is to start the process of finding musicians to help me bring these symphonies to reality.  Anyone interested is welcome to contact me at mccombsignature@gmail.com.
Thank you for your interest and time!
-Wes
