    Amazing piece, everything about it is stunning and captures the ideas and strengths of each instrument amazingly. I love all the contrasting sounds in all the first four movements that all end up coming together to create the incredible soundscape and theme of movement 5. Composers like you are the reason I want to be one so bad, we love coming up with ideas and expressing them through music. Me and my buddies are thinking of playing this for a contest at our school in May of next year (2025) where we will hopefully play all five moments in the entirety. For most of my ensemble, we will be seniors in high school next year and we all think this would be an amazing piece to end our high school careers on. I’m actually a clarinet player but I’ve taken on the task of learning soprano sax to contribute with my group. We’re all super excited and can’t wait to see what more you have in store and what we can accomplish. From one Lachlan to another, keep up the amazing work!!!😁
