Good work, Dawson. This seems very idiomatic for the oboe.

Take a closer look at bowing. I'd want down bows on the down beats in m. 3, 5, 9, and 11.

ReplyDeleteNice contour throughout. Remove the long phrase marking and just leave the slurs.

ReplyDeleteWhat instrument is this for David? I'd like to see the range expanded a bit more.

ReplyDeleteSoooo, I saw the prompt, saw "hex" and thought "hexadecimal," and attempted to squish two instrument lines into a single line for the sake of having a square wave channel play as the "one instrument." So the writing turned out very scribbly and difficult to read, though it was a good learning experience. Maybe I'll actually try producing it if I have sufficient time in the future.

You have a really wide range here! Keep an eye on your rhythmic notation - it should be as clear as possible.
