For the pleasure of sharing my first original composition performed on the excellent K2 Concert of Modartt.

Re: PIANOTEQ VIDEO CONTEST 2019 - INSTRUCTIONS

I just created a video for this year's contest, but when I uploaded to youtube, the video is blocked by the youtube Content ID. This has never happened to me and I am currently trying to resolve it with youtube, but if there is no resolution as the deadline approaches, would a submission via alternate video sharing sites (e.g., Vimeo) be acceptable for the Pianoteq contest?

Like my entries in previous years, the entry is all my piano playing and it meets the Pianoteq contest requirements (I don't really know why this one is blocked). Any guidance / advice as to how I can enter the contest will be greatly appreciated.

Re: PIANOTEQ VIDEO CONTEST 2019 - INSTRUCTIONS

Looks like my video is unblocked by youtube so the issue is resolved.

I didn't know there was a contest every year, but I think it's great! I am participating this year for the first time!
