Three Roads

Three Roads Free Sheet Music by Robert C. Fox for Various Instruments | Noteflight

I consider it a sort of Tolkien setting, because he liked this Child Ballad, and quoted this fragment of it in an essay.

I like the overall texture of this piece. 
A few concerns. 

The Guitar part; Not many guitarists can read sheets like this. Tabs would be preferred, and if not tabs, all chords used across the score should be indicated (like this) for the guitarist to play along. 

Also, I noticed at M. 67, I have no idea what's goin on there with the ensemble, but it's definitely out of key between all the parts. lol Made me cringe a bit, if I'm honest. 

At M. 44, it appears that you're attempting a modulation there to another key, as from that point, accidentals are everywhere... While I didn't have much time to review the score to determine the chords / key being utilized, I'd highly suggest reviewing that area to make any corrections in accidentals that would be necessary based on the chords/key utilized. 

Fun piece, but much notation work could be accomplished to better polish what's written. Also, I'd highly suggest upgrading from Noteflight to at least MuseScore studio or something similar. Noteflight imo is a pain to use... Just trying to use it to determine the chords in those 4 measures for you was a pain in the rear... 😅

Well, I didn't write this directly into Noteflight, though I can do that now but only with a piano piece, but Three Roads was written on paper, May 8-12 1999, I actually dated the manuscript.  This is a classical guitar part even though it is played on an electric; chord indications and tab are not standard in classical guitar published music.  This is a chromatic and harmonically adventurous piece, it was just the poem, really, I wasn't always writing like that in 1999!

Ah, I understand now! And don't take my words as judgement of your skill, at all. I hope that wasn't what was gathered. I didn't know this was written so long ago! Figured this was a newer score being shared as recent work looking for improvement. Thank you for the clarification.
