Is there a score to follow?

Here is the score

I do not know, how experienced you are in composing music to larger ensembles like this, but if you don't mind, I have a few suggestions.

I like the themes, it is nice how they use penthatonic stuctures. If I were you, next time I would more concentrate to the chords, the harmony, because in the second part the repetitive harmonisation a bit annoying to me. For example in the Section E you use again the theme of D, but it would be much nicer in my opinion, if you change a bit in the harmony (fg. 58. m VI. -> IV.).

About the score:

1) It is really great, to see the rehearsal signs, it makes easier to follow the score.

2) It would be much readable, if you write the Bass Cralinet in F-key (in case you do not want to work in transposing score)

3) If you write tremolo for stings, it is confusing to see slurs in the score (fg. 68-74 m.), avoid that.

 

Well, I hope it is helpful, and I would be curious, if you will make any progress in this piece.
