We thought we were escaping

Deadline?

Regarding the instrumentation, I'm going freestyle, trying to make sense of it by ear

Here is mine

Destroyed, pleasant and at times interesting

'these woods don't set...

Which ones?

now that I have looked at the solution everything makes sense, I will publish it tomorrow.

a part from the fg which are wrong in the sense that they do harmony more than pedal, I wasn't convinced that the flute would leave the melody to pass to the piccolo. And indeed the melody is doubled only by the piccolo ....

Eagle, solution or are you in the home stretch?

Posting because I didn't understand the orchestration

However, regarding your work, I don't understand one thing: you used woodwinds/brass but the instructions only provided for strings... why? Maybe we had the same doubt

here it is.

in reality L was referring to the 1st presentation of the theme (strings solo), this is the repetition (same instrumentation as the previous exercises).

unfortunately I hadn't noticed your uncertainty regarding the instrumentation, sorry.
