Persichetti Exercise 3 - 50 for Woodwind Quartet

Featured Replies

I've written yet another piece prompted by an exercise from Persichetti's "20th Century Harmony"!  This one is for 2 Clarinets and 2 Bassoons.  The prompt is:  "Extend the following passage for two clarinets and two bassoons."

I tried to make an actual piece of music out of it instead of just a harmonic exercise, but let me know what you think!  Thanks for listening and I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions, critiques or just observations!

Hey for an exercise its enjoyable. It's fun to listen to, and I think this is a great way to learn different types of harmony. You stayed true to the motif, which makes it easier to follow.

I find this one refreshing to listen to and easy to follow due to the sequences!

This is quite nice.  I like Persichetti's book but I've never done the exercises in it; you're making me kind of want to give them a try, though!
