Symphony no. 1 in D
1
Written between December 2009- November 2011 (age 16-18). Farily experimental work inspired by, though not necessarily emulating, early 20th century East European composers. I have no idea if it is great or awful or anywhere in between. First movement is the most experimental, third movement is a Russianesque dance, final movement includes solo wordless voice. The scores say by Adrik Drevnerussky, that is my pen name to get me in the character. Never used YC reviews before so I'm not sure if this will even work, let alone whether the score is in the right order (If it goes on in the order it is listed now, then the movements are 3,4,2,1). Approx. 50 minutes.
Oh I certainly know this is nowhere near ready to be used by a conductor, to say nothing of the individual parts, this is totally unpolished. Actually, if someone has experience with the Finale score merger feature, I was planning on merging the documents before setting up those changes but I'm having the absolute darndest time making that happen.

I appreciate the great effort you've put into your work, and your intent to build a colorful orchestration (I personally feel, however, that you could have done better with your strings). But I have some technical issues when it comes to the scoring of the piece.
1) I'm worried about the Bass Clarinet and Contrabass Clarinet lines. Both are notated in Treble Clef and instructed to play on the lower register - but I don't know if you're taking into account that the real sound will be one full octave below the written notes, in the case of Bass Clarinet. Also, the Contrabass Clarinet could perfectly be notated in Bass Clef instead.
2) The percussion notation is very unclear to me. The score gives me absolutely no clue about what 'percussion' instrument is supposed to play any given note, and there are even overlapping lines. The audio file suggest me cymbals, bass drum, triangle and snare drum, but I'd hope to see them specified in the score. Could you split this line into as many lines as required percussionists?
3) The piece absolutely lacks rehearsal marks. When writing for ensembles, they are a MUST, esp. when there's an orchestra involved (I learned it the hard way - having one of my pieces rejected for an intended performance because it couldn't be rehearsed).
This review might seem a bit hard, but I'm actually trying to help you by giving an honest critique. A Symphony demands a lot of hard work, of which you've done a great deal just by actually writing it. But I think it still needs an extra effort. Feel free to ask around YC for help - there are advanced students and teachers willing to offer advice in the areas you might feel in need.
