I'll be placing some arrangements here, starting with National Park. I've been struggling to get the format right, and suspect I need to do a lot of things I'm not entirely familiar with. What more does it need to be submitted?

MUS MUSX MIDI PDF

Looking at your PDF alone:

• Bar 4's right-hand beaming is fused together and nearly unreadable when I initially load the page on Google Drive (this oddly seems to be alleviated when I zoom in and out). This makes me confused at first glance whether they're supposed to represent 32nd notes or 16th notes.
• The last arpeggio line in Bar 9 is unpleasantly close to touching the previous chord's notes.
• Bar 14 has one of the most confusing cases of do-I-strike-this-supposedly-held-note-again. In the right hand, the last two 16th notes combined with the last 8th note really makes me wonder whether I hold down or repeat that B double flat.
• Bar 16's pp and p dynamic markings touch the left-hand beams.
• The dynamic markings in Bars 25-27 don't align, and unlike Bar 28, I can't see any reasons why they shouldn't align. (Bar 16's dynamic markings also don't quite align, although that case is less noticeable.)
• I was this close to not interpreting the hand cross-clef line correctly in Bar 28 because it didn't pierce the triplet bracket.
• In the last two 16th notes and the last 8th note of the right hand in Bar 30, I don't know whether I'm supposed to hold down the A flat or the C.
• I'd appreciate it if the right-hand half note in Bar 30 had its stem pointing downward. It looks sloppy with its stem pointing upward into the note and upward-pointing stem on top.
• Bar 32's rests are poorly positioned. The 8th rest is embedded in a note (to the point where I had to tell it was an 8th rest from context), and the half rest is so badly positioned that I thought the note there was a 16th note at first. I'd like all the bottom rests in that bar to be moved down.
• Bars 33-34's dynamic markings don't align, either.
• The fused beams problem strikes again in Bars 35-38, Bars 40-45, and Bar 48 (and even Bars 33-34 to a certain extent).
• The 4 quarter rests in the left hand of Bar 46 look like they should be replaced with a whole rest.
• The highest notes in the right hand of Bar 48 have a ton of ledger lines (I'd say that 4-5 ledger lines are too many), which makes them hard to read. They aren't in chords with substantially lower notes, so I think an 8va line should be used with them. (I've seen significantly more sheet music with 4 or more ledger lines in the bass clef than the treble clef.)
• Lastly, my personal preference is to use 8va lines instead of the less noticeable and much-less-common-in-published-piano-sheet-music treble-clef-with-an-8-sign-on-top.

Went and did some more updates and cleanup. This is somehow more difficult than before, but I need some feedback from Daj on what he wants exactly relating to melodic and rhythmic identity in the last section. What should be done to it next?

[LeviR.star]

If you want more feedback, you could always submit your sheet, Madmonk!

[Maelstrom]

No. It should be submitted when it's good and ready, and not a moment before.

[LeviR.star]

What I mean is that when people stop giving you feeback on a personal arrangement, it probably means they've given you all the feedback they can.
