August 3Aug 3 Hi to all ๐This work is loosely connected to my last post "Chills".As I wrote the piano version of that piece, it brought to mind the style of Charles Koechlin. So it seemed fitting to make an orchestration of one of his lovely piano miniatures.I wonder how many of you have never heard of him? (I hadn't until recently!)I've posted two versions below: 14 has a different woodwind arrangement of the opening passage, and a percussive hit added in Bar 8.I wonder which you think is best?As usual it's a rough score, intended for midi only. I haven't got round to adding slurs, and the 1st Violin passages would probably make more sense if I split them across 2nd Violins and Violas.The original piano piece can be found in the You Tube link below.Koechlin - Roses Au Soleil De Midi #14.mp3Koechlin - Roses Au Soleil De Midi #11.mp3Koechlin - Roses Au Soleil De Midi #14.pdf Koechlin - Roses Au Soleil De Midi #12.pdf Edited August 3Aug 3 by Alex Weidmann Added link to Koechlin original
