Mackey actually wrote that way on purpose. Mackey writes in the score, and I quote "hold over slightly past ensemble, quick "fall" release" The "fall" just means fall over the ensemble, just restating what Mackey wants the player to do
Mackey came and talked to our all-state band (since we are recording sacred spaces) last week and told us when he wrote the melody for sacred spaces that it sounded familiar, and it was because he had already written it here. He said he was ok stealing from himself
What are all the different instruments he uses in this? Obviously there's trumpet, piccolo trumpet, and I'm assuming flugelhorn, but there's another one I'm missing (and please correct me if I'm wrong lol)
