Wow...that actually does sound ok! I didn't think that the piece would hold up that well when orchestrated (granted, that's just a small bit). I liked how you kept the heavy-pulse feel but also some forward motion. The enhanced rhythms kept things from being monotonous, and the additional dissonance (and just some of the countermelodic lines) colored things well. Thank you for showing me how it could be done. I certainly would like to do this, but I think I'll wait 'til I have the whole piano/cello sonata version completed first. A crystallized, essential accompaniment that has been fleshed out over the course of the movements will prepare me to expand well to expand to orchestra, I think. Thank you for your very practial take-it-to-the-next-level comments last night and for giving the time required to demonstrate this orchestration.
