Orchestral Nocturne

This is an interesting piece. I'm not sure what to make of it. There are parts I like and parts I think could use some tweaking. What was your approach to writing this? Is it done, or will it be performed anytime soon?

Thanks for posting, and I look forward to learning more about the piece if you have any time to explain more about the work.

This is an interesting piece. Orchestrationaly, some of your celesta parts would most likely be lost in the overall sound mass - unless this was meant for a chamber ensemble or so. You have a lot of ideas here - would be nice to see this trimmed down a little bit. Nice work! I hope you share more with us!

Thanks for the feedback guys!

@ AntiA: I think the ending needs to be tweaked most. Honestly, when I wrote this, a lot of it was improvisation while trying to maintain the theme throughout in different ways, time signatures, with different instruments, etc.

@jawoodruff: yeah, i see what you mean, the celesta is really important and should come over everything else. It gives a sort of otherworldly/dreamy texture to the piece

I have trouble opening the score. The font is not included... Anyone else has this problem?
