the recorded lyrics of a Hozier song v. sheet music for fiddle tunes yes this is how the transcriber interpreted the vocables and decorations but...don't get too attached. what's most important is not on the page. what's most important is never on the page.

"This place doesn't have a back way out--" Yes, it does, and the classical musician in the room knows where to find it.

Usually 15 seconds of original music is all I can manage at a time, without harmony. So smashing out almost three minutes is…a really good feeling.

Me: idk, I think I’m just burnt out. Can’t create right now. Also me: writes a full piece with harmony parts in 6 hours. …what just happened

“why is there mud on your concert shoes” because I went for a walk. because the sky was pink. because the stars whispered awake one by one and I gazed upon Venus, bright as a sun, haloed by moths with my back to a tree and thought, star-gazed, fresh from the stage, how quickly life can change.

While both musicians and demolitionists may use the term “C4,” they are usually referring to completely different subjects, and one is not often in danger while visiting the orchestra. In the case of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, however…

I think they have us confused with vampires, which, while flattering, raises questions about whether vampires show up to casual events in sweatpants and crocs.

Musicians in fiction: a vile, cutthroat, fight to the death for solos, prestige and the Throne Real orchestral musicians: oh no I don't want to sit in the front. you have to give me notice 5 business days before if you want me in the front. what do you mean the soloist is absent. what.

“why is @bookmarkedone.bsky.social a cryptid but @celanimori.bsky.social is just…celani mori?” People can be normal about books. Barnes & Noble girls with coffees & glossy paperbacks. Others inhabit used bookstores with stacks continually threatening avalanche, glassy-eyed & smelling of dust.(1/2)
