Disquiet Junto Project 0677: Jeux d’enfants
The Assignment: Make music inspired by a children’s toy or game.

Step 1: In the early 1870s, the composer George Bizet wrote a suite of short pieces, each inspired by one or another toy or game beloved by children. The first in the series, “L’escarpolette,” suggested a swing, and another, “La toupie,” a spinning top. There were pieces for soap bubbles and leap-frog, as well. Read up on and listen to Bizet’s suite, which was titled Jeux d’enfants, or Children’s Games.

Step 2: Choose a suitable toy or game, perhaps one from your own childhood, or perhaps something even more modern.

Step 3: Record a short piece of music inspired by the subject you selected in Step 2.

Deadline: Monday, December 23, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.
