Sinfonia in A minor "in profondità"

Sinfonia in A minor  "in profondità"

Sinfonia "in profondita (into the deep)". Two movement sinfonia for baroque orchestra. Experimental fuge form. Fugal texutres broken up by chorale textures.

Please tell me what you think

Massive! With its own mood. Feels like Max Richter (https://musescore.com/user/8045571/scores/4436386) but more extensive! Fantastic, I like it! How can I download mp3?

Great sounding piece! The second fugal section is different from the typical baroque form, but I love it! It sounds modern, while retaining the baroque sound! I hope this is part of a full suite!

The opening section contains tremolos on all instruments. This makes sense on strings, but what do you want the woodwinds to play? Measured semiquavers, or flutter tonguing? I highly suspect it's the former, as the latter would sound rather clumsy and unnatural in this context. It would be clearer if you specify.

Thank you very much, yes the fugal section is more like a cantanta movement with recitativo. Its not that unusul in early baroque! But i have not seen it to much in intrumental concerto movements.

Hello, it was never my intention that the winds should play tremolo. They will play the notated value without tremolo (that is how it is in the recording). I did not specify beacuse I thought it was obvoius, but you are right. I would be more clear to write it in the score. 🙂

Thanks for the clarification! Just a heads-up, nothing is obvious these days. With avant-garde and semi-avant-garde music floating around ubiquitously, composers tend to do all kinds of crazy stuff. Players only read the score in a literal manner.
