One step above not being mentioned at all, one step below actually receiving any prize money.

Sometime late last year, I entered my three-movement handbell and piano composition "The Sublime Numbers" in the 2006 SoundPrint Productions Handbell Composition Contest. (What is a "sublime number"? I'm so glad you asked.) This afternoon, I learned that "The Sublime Numbers" was one of two pieces awarded honorable mention in this contest. (There were two pieces awarded first place, so "TSN" was basically tied for the bronze medal.) I had really bipolar opinions of "TSN" — some days I loved it, some days I could barely listen to it — so I'm quite happy that the judges seemed to agree with the former opinion.

Also, yay me.

(Also, here is an MP3 of the first movement, "12.")
