A light piece I wrote in middle school for a scholarship. Conveys the fun innocence of childhood.

Rondo for 8 Woodwinds

Hi!

Well, this is quite a cute little piece. I do have to tell you though that your melody sounds VERY much like "For he's a jolly good fellow". Still, it was kind of a humorous thing there :)

It was just the right length. If it went on any longer it would have gotten boring.

That chromatic section was really cool! I'd definitely extend on that one.

A few things:

Bassoon 1: get out of tenor clef! According to all bassoonists I know once it's below the G below middle C it gets confusing.

And, in the spot where the clarinets have the melody and the oboes are playing accompaniment, that's a bit too high for too long. Now, Stravinsky obviously didn't get that fact, but you should learn it! For sure, down an octave.

Nice little work here! I enjoyed it.
