Baião de seis(Flute,oboe,clarinet, horn, cello and double bass)

I wrote this piece for Policromo ensemble, is inspired in baião rithm, a typical brazilian music.

Hi @dhslamas!

The music sounds so energetic with the distinctive baião rithm (I have never heard of it before, fogive me 😅). The color of the piece is wonderful too as you give each player their own passages for taking the melodic lead. One small thing is that maybe from 1:28 onwards when the rhythm stops the whole music stops with 2 beats and having gaps in it which I would fill in to push forward the music even more (though it's my preference only). This is a very enjoyable playing as well. Thx for sharing!

Thank you for your feedback , Henry Ng Tsz Kiu.

It is a nice piece. I like it because it is not so much cross-over in style but rather more of a classical art music, based on baiao dance rhythms. It is the similar approach I took on my five tangos for various ensembles. The only problem I see (hear) in no real climax. I wanted something more. Otherwise, good job!

"Thank you for your feedback @Sojar Voglar! I made this composition for my friend Rubia(flute), She had this group with a very unussual formation and I want make a piece that show the potential of each musician, because this is unique compostion they play that were made for this expecific formation. maybe you are right about climax , in my mind the climax is the solo of horn, clarinet , flute and oboe and coda."
