Short Composition Challenge

I have an idea for a brief informal contest.  Given a simple,
one-oscillator orchestra, provide a score which produces the
most beautiful piece.

I offer an orchestra that I crafted for the purpose
of this event.  One can make use of very limited
envelope an pan controls.  Obviously, the craft will
be in the score generation program (although one is
welcome to hand edit her entry!).

If there is interest, I suggest a seven day window
for this challenge.  Only the scores should be
submitted at first.  We can look at source code
later.  For large scores, a URL might be best.  I can host
scores if you send them to me in an archive format.

Thanks,

Toby
