They shouldn't look down on the repeats, as long as you supply enough variety etc. within the repeated sections. Remember: the marker doesn't mark the final recording, they mark the score, the recording is just an auditory example of whats on the sheet.
I'm doing two Compositions. The subjects are:
-Technology in music (Revisited).
-Music for a large ensemble.
The tech in music is a classical piece in which I "Pervert" the sound of a string orchestra using electronic effects.
The ensemble piece is a Boogie-woogie brass band song. It has many repeated sections, but each repeated section introduces a new instrument or variation of the previous rendition.
Tech was finished months ago. Ensemble was recorded and finalised today. Just tweaking the score now
