If the ranges are do-able it might be a playable piece. When I concern 
myself with playability I usually get out my trusty 
instrumentation/orchestration guide to determine what I can get away 
with. Alas, I paid no such attention while composing this piece. I'd 
also have to get my butt in gear to score it, and that might take a 
while (the score might look pretty cool though ;).

Btw, in case anyone is interested, the music is based on free 
manipulation of a 12-tone row. Obviously I've not shied away from tonal 
references. The manipulation is sometimes very free, oscillating between 
using the row as a pitch collection and as an interval series. The row 
was treated sometimes linearly and sometimes vertically, i.e. sometimes 
for counterpoint and sometimes for harmonic resources.

I've written a lot of other chromatic music, I'll post some later.

And as always, thank you for taking the time to listen to my music.

Best,
