Thank you kindly for your comments.
In regards to breathing... heh, I kinda forgot that people had to be playing this :X. The wonders of computer technology blinded me to the physical limitations of instrumentalists. In regard to the oboe, well, I probably should have done more research involving the instruments range before I wrote for it. It was my mistake ><. I love the sound of the double reed instruments... I'm a trombonist myself, but double reeds just have a very earthy, natural sound that other instruments don't see to produce for me. I've had to play bassoon parts on my instrument before, and I'm always frustrated with how I cannot emulate the same thick sound bassoons are able to produce.
As far as the counterpoint goes, what specifically don't you like about it? Is it too similar to the subject, or just not pleasing to the ear?
