  1. Thanks a lot. I will do.
  2. Thanks of lot. I will firstly revise the piece and then I may contact you.
  3. Thanks a lot, I will ask you then after a first revision.
  4. Thanks Ferkungamabooboo and Gardener for the advice. I will firstly look myself and once I have revised the piece, post it here somewhere for further comments on the playability.
  5. Hi, I'm not a guitar player but am writing a guitar concerto (perhaps than I shouldn't but ...). Sibelius, the notation proram, has a plug-in to check the double stops for the strings (I found out recently). Does something similar exists for the guitar, to find out whether everything is playable ? Or are there some (short) guidelines somewhere available ? Kind regards.
  6. Thanks a lot. With this opinion, for me the problem is solved: rather using the extra sharps or flats. It's a piece that is (not transposed) mostly in D flat major, and sometimes in E major. I don't want to change the key because it definitely sounds most beautiful as it is written now. Perhaps later when I cleaned up the score I will post it here.
  7. Thanks. So in a clarinet sonata with piano, switching to the other clarinet seems a good solution as long as the piano is playing and the clarinet player has enough time, right ?
  8. hello, what is best to do in a composition (clarinet sonata): is it better within a movement to let the player change from B flat to A clarinet a couple of times when the key changes drastically, or is it better that you let him keep his intrsument but playing whit a lot of sharps or flats ? what do clarinet players prefer ? kind regards, geert
  9. To Symphony Concertante: Thanks for your comment. In some other of my compositions I speak a less modern language, but I didn't "try" to be modern in this one. The melodies just came in my head and I wrote the movements in 3 days. The 1st one is in a clear sonata form and in the development section tension is raised to a climax (I think).
  10. Thanks Siwi for your very useful comments. I have revised all the mentioned bars now (not yet published on SibMusic) according to your comments.
  11. Hi, I present here my first sonata for cello solo (2006). Currently I'm revising all my compositions technically: on playability etc. So I would like some (specific if possible) comment on the double stops: are they all playable ? which ones are not playable on cello ? Ofcourse all other feedback is also appreciated. Here are the links to the score and there you find also an MP3: I. Moderato http://www.sibeliusmusic.com/index.php?sm=home.score&scoreID=96995 II. Adagio Sibelius Music - Find, share and publish music scores III. Allegro scherzando Sibelius Music - Find, share and publish music scores Kind regards, Geert.
