Bolero for winds

A (pseudo-)Bolero for an unusual harmoniemusik ensemble: Clarinet, three Bassoons, and a virtuosic Castanets part. The form is a loose Rondo, with the alternativo part being a short Fandango in D minor an a famous progression.

That's my first complete work scoring woodwinds, so please let me know if there are some errors, apart the longish trill at measure 99 

Great work. You did a pretty good job with ensuring breaths are able to be taken. Some of the faster triplet passages are very difficult, but possible; I don't think the bassoon has a good fingering for that. Tempo transitions were a bit strange as well, namely the first one, and the return to the main theme was, too, a bit strange.

Good work; cheers!

Great! Fiercely difficult for all players, it seems, but it's a fantastic piece and a really fun listen. Very impressive for your first work with woodwinds. It might earn you the scorn of a bassoon player, but if they have the skill to pull it off it would be well worth it.
