Hey Ray,
first of all, nice to hear you
You already said it yourself, the g' was noticably flat, but I think the d' was, too. Besides that, I'd have have tongued the g' to g' quarters in the second bar of your solo more decisively. Also, I think your g' to d'' transition in bar 6 of your solo sounded a bit "swallowed up", you probably didn't get your embouchure on point exactly. My g' is rather too sharp and I flatten it using either my fingers or my embouchure, depending on the volume
Other than that, it was a very fine solo and I think given your age you're doing great. I liked the mellowness and dreaminess of your tone, which suits this movement perfectly. You're probably already better than me; I've never been able to play in such a fine school ensemble like yours, and then you're still going to move to even better ensembles eventually... So don't worry too much and keep doing your thing, like any good musician you'll notice every single mistake you make anyways (and the one being upset the most about it will be you!)
Your Balloon solo reminded me of the shoesole solo I've captured with my "symphonic" orchestra (along with some clarinet parts I've played)
BTW, a better mic would do your orchestra more justice. Mine cost 100€.
Best regards,
Christian
