A song about Pie :D

I think I'm gonna change the whole notes at the end for quaternotes 

If I were scoring for a brass quintet I don't think I would write for the trumpets in unison quite so much. Personally, I feel like it sort of under-utilizes the potential of having five voices, and also introduces some intonation problems that would probably not arise at all if it were not in a chamber situation. This is a small thing though and possibly more of a personal preference. I would also like to see some added interest in the bassline, and less repeated 8th notes in general. I just think there are more interesting possibilities for accompanying figures.

For the most part I think it's pretty good work. Part-writing is idiomatic, rangewise. Slurs and dynamics would make it more so.

I planned it being part of the fun sound but I'll edit this and change it around and play with harmonies.

I'll try this also, I also find the repeated 8th notes, capable of not being in the piece the whole way through. And the tubaist I bet would agree with you if it weren't just a computer. 

I'll edit my song and keep these in mind. I'm thankful for your suggestions and I hope I can show the edits at their best
