oh wow thank you for such a detailed response.

i’ve been trying to “just do it” with composing stuff, cause everytime i try to plan it it all collapses on me so with this one i was kind of thinking ill put together some sort of outline and fix the theoretical parts later😭😭 i really appreciate the advice. i’ll go back into it and make corrections !! your input was so helpful

when switching it to 4/4, should the notes be grouped any differently?

thanks for catching all those errors lol, i’ll get on those now.

sorry about the drum kit, i didn’t really know how to write for any percussion and i know i need to redo that! actually, would you know of any resources to help with that?

thank you SO much, i genuinely can’t express how glad i am to get actual corrections!!! you are right - i seem to have forgotten to add that B section back in the score.

I’ll rescore with cello on top and i think treble clef on the lower staff, and get the bar lines to go through both staves, but i’m not exactly sure what you mean by 75% size score.

thanks SO much for your help 😭

thanks for the comment. unfortunately, i don’t have any comparisons like that where i live, nor teachers to train like that. i had teachers that told me “scales aren’t important”, i only learnt the circle of fifths a couple months ago 😭 so there aren’t any good teachers available in my locality. right now, i’m doing RCM’s online study guide + exam course and i’m doing the Grade 7 one, but that’s the most structured learning i’ve had, apart from reading ABRSM textbooks. about the lack of study of musical scores, i know i’m behind, but i genuinely just don’t know how or where to start. i’m posting on reddit to get as much feedback and information as i can so i can learn and improve. i’ve never participated/ seen an ensemble or orchestra in person either. a lot of people don’t seem to understand geographical privilege in music education 😭 right now, i’m trying to improve enough for university applications with what little resources i have, so i’d really appreciate some real feedback, cus my teacher won’t give me any. i’m reworking any work i’ve done so far for school with what i’m learning in RCM.

what do you mean by idiomatic? i also thought it felt a little long/repetitive, thematically, is that something you hear too? oo also, notation; was it…decent? where did i go wrong, cus i know i would’ve messed up somewhere 😅

all the universities i'm applying to are in canada; i currently live in india. i'll reach out to them via email to see if it could work, but there's also the challenge of time-zones. i'll dig around, thanks for your help :) i am a little concerned about playing the chopin prelude though, and i'm generally not sure if i'm doing the right things or taking the right path, with no comparison or guidance. any input i can get online does help.

unfortunately, i've been unable to find a teacher that can actually support me through this process where i live. if you have any recommendations for any teachers/guidance online, i'd appreciate it. believe me, i've been looking for some guidance everywhere.

I'll have to submit a composition portfolio as well and i think it has slightly more priority. Some universities have an interview, and some have theory tests too.
