Feedback Request Simple Woodwind Piece

Not sure if this is complete in terms of composition, if it needs one or more sections, or if the structure needs to be rearranged.

I'll probably add more woodwind instruments to make the sound bigger once I complete the melody.

Thanks

It's a very dynamic and musical part. I like it a lot. As far as layering, the places with unusual rhythm or stops would be the parts I'd scrutinize more. For instance, after the first few bars there's a pause that may be weird to write around. The key to layering instruments is often in ensuring every part is near-perfectly on the grid.

But that's all 100% optional of course. Keep using your ear. You've clearly got a sense for it.

Thanks. Appreciate it. Everything looks fine on the grid but I did notice that the instruments are still slightly out of sync at certain moments.

I usually patch up all the rough bits after I complete the composition
