SUGGESTED INSTRUMENTATION<br />
The following list has been provided below to serve as a guide for your part assignments; any combination of these instruments at<br />
your discretion can be used to perform this work, as long as they each fulfill the number of parts required. As few as six players, one<br />
per part, can perform this work.<br />
If you're able to do this, don't be afraid to experiment with different instrumental combinations when performing this work! These<br />
experimentations can be used a learning tool for you and your performers for how color and texture can change with even the<br />
smallest difference in orchestration (example: have the flutes play alone at a particular passage, then clarinets and/or saxophones,<br />
then a combination of all of these families. What are the differences in timbre? Does it affect the mood or emotion of the piece, and if<br />
so, how?). Use this piece, in that regard, as an endless sea of experimentation and creative possibilities for you and your performers.<br />
With all of this in mind, this arrangement of TO RIGHT OUR WRONGS should be used as opportunity to demonstrate how music<br />
isn't just chord progressions, electronic samples, heavy-metal grooves, or even just simply dots on a page. It's how that music is<br />
brought to life with what we have available; what we can create from it; how decisions of musical intent, listening to each other, and<br />
hearing these new sounds/colors/textures can impact musical intent for a piece of music and/or our perceptions of it; and finally,<br />
how we can use these skills for any performance situation, no matter what the instrumentation, style, or genre may be.<br />
