For this one, I wanted to do something in the style of my first piece for wind ensemble<br />
(Like Our Fathers Before Us). The ideas came quite quickly for this one, and I finished it<br />
in under a day. During the opening, please phrase the brass soli. It should flow, ebb,<br />
and breathe. In the first few pages, the first trumpet should blend into the french horns<br />
and not come to the front of the texture.<br />
When the marimba enters, it should be very clock-like and consistent. Throughout the<br />
piece trumpet 1 has some cue notes that, although less desirable, can be played if the<br />
part goes too high.<br />
The string bass and alto clarinet part are optional, and no great loss will occur if they<br />
aren't covered. I've mostly stayed away from slurs in this work, but that doesn't mean<br />
the entire piece should be "pointy". Please encourage legato from the players where<br />
you see fit.<br />
