✨🖍️ ❤🖍️✨ I like that you mentioned you even use crayons when you’re getting the architecture down. Fascinating to have the chance to peek inside your brilliance! Thank you.
This is AMAZING!! I heard Lux Arumque for the first time on Tuesday night - at the local high school's band performance of it. His intent was *EXACTLY* what happened!!!! To Me!!! The Golden Brick: "teaching the audience when and how to breathe" - that is literally what happened. I leaned forward and started breathing differently. I actually did notice the shift palpably. I felt myself descending into a more peaceful place. I have been listening to this composition (for band mostly, but also choral arrangement) ever since. And have been sharing it - and describing and explaining to others that my breath evolved into "Yoga Breathing" (described humorously). Whitacre did exactly what he intended to do with this piece. Amazing.
I love this.....not only is it very interesting to hear him speak about how he writes, it's also a great lesson in arranging. And of course, just beautiful music:) I have always loved this piece since the first time I heard it.
