dona nobis pacem contest closing - timing

Here it is at 4pm December 31st, the date of the Dona Nobis Pacem contest closing. My children (11-year old on bassoon and 13-year old on oboe) and I have just finished mixing our entry, and we find that the contest has closed!

The contest is a lovely idea and we're huge YoYo Ma fans. But after working on our entry for the last week, we're sad. Really sad!! I'm posting this in the hopes that someone from Indaba Music is online and can answer a question about when the contest really, truly closed. The website stated that entries were being accepted through today.

Regardless, it was a wonderful chance to collaborate.

Best,
David
