I wrote a melody for solo flute, trying to write a 12 tone row that sounded nice, and (hopefully) succeeded. Then, I decided to try and orchestrate it for winds, as I'd completely forgotten about this, which I am very sorry about Michel, I know how much work you've put into this and I hate myself for not putting the same amount back

Originally I wanted to go for ex.5, but I didn't think it was long enough to get the full use of 2 of each, so I tried it for wind quartet, hope that's ok

The 12 tone row is the flute part, the bassoon is playing a counterpoint and the oboe and clarinet doubling motifs and filling in the harmony in the latter part. I've tried to include as many performence instructions as I could to convey what I wanted to, but I'm not sure if it worked; I was going for a kind of light, bouncy feeling, hence the stacatto and fairly fast tempo.

Once again I'm sorry I've not given your exercises as much attention as they deserve.
