Race to the Finish

Instrumention:

Flute

This is a short and fun piece I wrote last year. It is a race between the different instruments in the ensemble. I just sent it in for consideration in publication. Enjoy! Any comments will be appreciated!

Here is a professional recording:

Race to the Finish

Hehehem it reminds me a race of pets :) Nothing to give - nothing to take :w00t:

I like this piece, because it is so extremely light, it is simple but precise. I like the instrumentation and how you express the motion of a race from a very gentle perspective almost as if explaining something to a child; no hard times everything running perfectly smooth. Very enjoyable melody!

Delightful little piece! :whistling:

Although I think perhaps a little more energy in the middle part would've accounted for a real race, this seems to me as a friendly stroll around the countryside with a little "racy" ending as a fun factor at the end.

So did the piano arrive last? xD

I would like to think the flute won, but really what happen was everyone came to a crashing end so there really wasn't a winner. lol

Hah, this piece is really fun and light. Just listening to it puts a smile on my face.

I appreciate that a lot. I know it makes people happy..that's why I wrote it, but what ways could I improve it? Or is it complete?
