Hi Oleg,
A few comments:
The flute/piccolo/whistle instrument doesn't add anything structurally.
The piece is clearly focused on the guitar sounds, I think I'd like it
better if the flute sound was replaced by another guitar part.
I wanted to hear some more significant crescendi. I think you could vary
the surface of the piece by playing with dynamics more. (I was going to
say "playing with dynamic curves" but I don't want to tempt my fellow
LAUyers).
The individual parts are well-composed and nicely performed. Some more
touches in the dynamics and balances might give it a little more
intensity. Btw, I listened to it on headphones, perhaps my critique will
change when I can play it on the main speakers here.
Best,
dp
