February 15, 20206 yr Both well done. Viewing the score was difficult as ever with my small screen but I noticed some nice things like setting the harp pedalling.slurring to denote legato (mostly under the same bowstroke in the strings.) The scoring has great clarity. Beautiful.
February 16, 20206 yr I like the orchestration and I think you use it smartly. People (myself included) often use all their resources at all times, ending up with something over-orchestrated. You took your time and allowed the music to need that extra power to actually use it. I particularly enjoyed the canon in the second sketch. It sounds awesome especially when juxtaposing sections where the harp plays with a big strings sound. In M.43 the cello has a silence marking while the viola plays a G. Is this intentional?

I wasn't ready and, in fact, I didn't write for orchestra for that reason. But I began to study the orchestra half a yerar ago, or so.... I have many things to learn... Yes that was a mistake, thanks, I'll fix it.
