I orchestrated my best prelude (Over the sea of fog)

Hello everyone, this is my first time orchestrating a piano piece of mine and I wanted to go for an epic Straussian orchestration. Feel free to spot any mistakes or give me any advice, I'm still quite new to the world of orchestral music. 🙂

It took around 6 hours to orchestrate and I used basic knowledge, the Musescore playback and my intuition.

The original piece was done at a very important time of my life and it symbolizes looking at he horizont of the dark past and remembering one last time before moving on.

But feel free to let me know what it made you feel or imagine. 😁

I love this miniature: it has a real sense of gravitas and emotional resonance for me!

Only one minor point: when you have a fermata, it should be indicated across all instruments, even those not playing.

Thank you! And you are right, I will keep it in mind for next time. 🙂
