To add, maybe in measure 8, let Clarinet one finish the 16th note gesture with the oboe. Why? Mainly due to the instance a performer may be late when entering and to not break the long gesture of the scale. Have the clarinet finish the gesture into the next downbeat. I am unsure why the horn figure is broken up in measure 9. It makes sense for Horn 1 to go the A natural and jump to C# as an escape tone. (Same in mm.10) Also, make sure the Horn 2 beaming is the same in measure 7. Measure 11 - Lower the bassoon 2 scale down an octave or raise the Low B on measure 12 up. Bassoon fingerings are tough and that jump is agony for a player because of how many fingers they put down and the change in embouchure. So lower it down an octave or make them both land on the same B-natural in mm.12.

Very much a night and day difference! Just be careful of a low flute or low oboe for too long as their tessituras change very distinctly. Flutes playing low = Whispery or "airy" sound and does not project well Oboes playing low = 'Goose' Honk. They sound a little comical. The only spot I saw this was measure 12, so it's not an issue unless you prolong that registration for too long. Good work!!

Goose Honk ? .................... I luv it ! https://www.myinstants.com/en/instant/goose-honk-44161/

@TristanTheTristan and @MK_Piano , Here is an updated version of the wood wind quintet arrangement. Humoreske in B minor.mp3 Max Reger.pdf

Thanks! You have a good point about the repeats. All those repeats are standard for the scherzo form, but I think probably taking out the one at 127 would improve the piece. Maybe also the repeat of the second half of the scherzo.
