Frank Bridge - The Hour Glass: The Midnight Tide (orchestration)

Hi, I'm back yet again, with the 3rd movement of Frank Bridge's "The Hour Glass".

It's a crazy work for piano, and not at all easy to orchestrate.

I think my filigree passages in the woodwind may be unrealistic in terms of coordination?

Also, MuseScore is telling me the vibraphone and marimba parts are straying into "expert" territory, which I guess means you need extra large instruments with additional tone-bars?

N.B. The score is an early draft designed for midi only: so will need a lot of adjustments for a real orchestra.

Anyhow, hope you enjoy!
