June 20, 20205 yr As part of my Arts Award, I composed a couple of bassoon pieces as my topic was music. I was hoping to get some feedback that I can include in my review: anything would be greatly appreciated 🙂 Edited June 20, 20205 yr by Mjpk109 sorry, forgot to upload the score!
June 20, 20205 yr If you could provide a score more people in this community would be able to provide better feedback. Anyways the pieces are a bit short (I do not know if that was the purpose) but they sound great! (Is the audio more than one piece?, If so does one piece ends at sec 39? or is it all one single piece) For avoiding this type of confusion, providing a score is always helpfull. Personally I liked some pieces! :)

There's 3 separate pieces and they're only meant to be short. depending on how they sound to others, I might expand on them.
July 11, 20205 yr The slow tempo combined with the muddy low piano chords does not sound good. =/ Just because you're writing for bassoon as the solo instrument doesn't mean it always has to be the top voice in your arrangement. You can make the bassoon stand out with dynamics and through it's unique melodic identity within the piece rather than having to always have it the highest voice. It just seems to me like in this piece you're trying to give the bassoon the highest part and always put the piano below it. Just some suggestions.
