    The fact that this comment is coming from a native percussionist, hearing about the wounded knee massacre scares me but brings different layers of music that is beautiful. the flute has a soft feeling of healing, the woodwinds has the feeling of bravery, trumpets has sound of courage, and the percussion has the feeling of the indigenous people being relentless and fearless of fighting for there people

    I played this song as an oboe player who had only first started learning the instrument 3-4 months before we were supposed to perform it. I still have that solo memorized from how many times I practiced it.

    • @lovermuzak
      @lovermuzak 4 роки тому +5

      @@cjaverysrandomreviews4675, I get what Anna is complaining about, it is when you are on piccolo and you have to sit out a lot. Sometimes you don't want to have to switch instruments, i have recently stopped switching back and forth unless it is called or in the music. I would just get the flute part and play in down the octave, just to help to keep me focused and my instrument ready.

    • @144adex3
      @144adex3 4 роки тому +7

      That’s not necessarily a bad thing. Band composers should be less afraid to have people sit out. Having the entire band playing constantly just creates the same generic band sound that’s been heard thousands of times before.

    • @karlwilker579
      @karlwilker579 3 роки тому +7

      The instructions given basically tell the musicians to play those notes, in that basic pattern, but with room for interpretation. The idea is that there is no "beat" in that section, just chaos. The players a cued by the conductor on when to come in.
