Devise an instrumentation for an ensemble
You need to take an existing piece of music (like a piano piece, hymn, or song) with at least 48 bars and score it for a small group of instruments playing together. Your job is to decide which instruments play which parts, making smart choices about how they combine to create interesting sounds. You'll submit a written score, an audio recording, and the original music.
You devise an instrumentation that works for an ensemble, showing you understand instrument ranges and can write it down clearly with mostly accurate notation.
Your instrumentation is well-thought-out and effective, showing you understand how different instruments combine, what sounds they make together, and you vary the texture throughout the piece.
Your instrumentation is convincing and imaginative, showing skilful, natural use of each instrument's strengths and varied, well-controlled texture throughout, with detailed and completely accurate notation.
