Nice piece. Rather original and the usage of the recorders IS grand! Excellent stuff!

I love the differnet textures, and the break in page 2 (the whole page, as in the break between pages 1 and 3) also worked very well imo. I also enjoyed pages 1 and 3 actually. Especially the multimphonics and all extended techniques really! Hmmm... I enjoyed the whole piece then.

I must say that the score reminds me of older times, to be honest, with those really "low resolution" lines in pages 1 and 3 and the time proportioned rather than normal bars. I was wondering if the 5" every bar was needed. Sure there is no time signature in the first and third page, but in effect every barline oncloses 5". So a note, or something could work maybe better? Just an idea.

As for scores, I always right stuff in Finale, AFTER I'm done with the manuscript (since I compose in pencil and paper). I find that the ending is very satisfying... (and I never ever use photoshop really).

At last! First it was Gardener and now SSC! Two people I had great interest in listening to their music have posted! YAY!
