I know, I was joking about Canada's perceived lack of unique cultural identity and close ties to Britain.
No words to describe the score

all the complex, different lines in each instrument and me having no idea why you specifically did what you did, and how you did it. This is something I tend to feel with many complex orchestral or operatic pieces. (Examples: why do the basses split from the celli here and reunite there? Why are the bassoons in octaves here and not in that place?)
I could ask these kinds of things in just about every bar of your piece, since I'm so ridiculously ignorant

"why is it the double basses don't do the sforzando in the beginning of the fourth bar along with the celli, who appear to be supporting the woodwinds and horns (who begin the bar the same way?) Is it because it's actually a particularly sonority *you* like, and wanted, or are there rules dictating these things?
Maybe I should just give up music
