Your first statement seems to imply that 'musically' there may be concerns? I know it's not really related to the masterclass, but would you mind perhaps pointing them out?
Again, thanks very much  |
oh no!
I'm sorry if it lead you to think I had concerns.. it was rather that I looked at it without taking anything "musical" into consideration (style, harmony, etc...).
When I correct as many orchestration exercises as I end up doing here, it becomes hard at times to ALSO examine in detail things like counterpoint and harmony.
What I should have said was "I didn't take the time to look at the music itself..."

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
