Presenting: my first meta! I'm a pianist/musical theater composer in NYC, so I'd been cooking up the idea of doing a little musical meta series. Granted: this is my first, so I'm not entirely sure of the difficulty level - I'd absolutely love feedback!
Thanks for sharing this! I like the concept. As a solver I found the grid to be more challenging than the meta, but it was fun and satisfying to complete. I've never constructed a crossword myself so I can't offer much advice in that area, but I enjoyed solving it!
Shannon PS: If you want help with a meta, PM what you have so I can help without spoiling too much. I've received lots of help in the beginning and I love to pay it forward!

Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
Excellent debut! I probably know more musical theatre than the average bear, but obviously less than a musical theatre composer, soo.... I had to resort to some searching for this one. I did see the metanism, but I missed an important part. Looking at the explanation, it all fits -- I just missed it. :/
Congratulations on your first forum meta! Very clever and well put together.
I had to work for the answer as I'm not very informed on the topic, but I got there finally.
Thanks, Danny!
Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.
Thanks for a fantastic debut meta!
