Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Listening to the Early Music Show on @bbcradio3.bsky.social and wondering if everyone refers to Léonin & Perotin as Len & Pete, or whether that was just music prof Wyndham Thomas at Bristol University in the early 1990s… 000
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Hi new followers. I see I’m in a Starter Pack - which I guess is where you’ve found me. Can’t promise to be much use on the music Ed front, but maybe I’ll learn from you! 010
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 01/12/2024It’s here! manwhohasitallshop.com/product/midd...manwhohasitallshop.comMiddle-class woman of a certain age sweatshirtAre you a middle-class woman of a certain age? Feel all kinds of comfort and solidarity in this soft, oversized sweatshirt, a much-needed addition to... 030
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 01/12/2024One wonders. It would be a great badge though, dontcha think? 110
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Ooh - I was thinking a nice lapel badge. Just posted the exact idea! 010
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Has anyone done a badge yet saying ‘Middle class woman of a certain age’? Because I think one would suit me. 110
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Do you also sometimes mentally add a little footnote to their official biogs? Miss Trala studied with Madame La Shout at the top conservatoire, has starred in numerous operas, sung on the same concert stages as Kiri Te Kanawa (but on a different date), and can’t pitch an F# from a D major chord. 010
Reposted by KateSam Bergman @violanorth.bsky.social · 23/11/2024It is an unbreakable rule of huge orchestral/choral works that one of the four soloists must have a sense of pulse so wonky that the orchestra almost has to skip an occasional beat to follow them. 5775
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 23/11/2024Curious. Didn’t see you on my gig tonight, but apparently you were there… 🤔 020
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 23/11/2024Next stage in son’s development as a musician: learning that the hardest part of forming a new band is not the actual music making (especially when mum knows some great arrangers) but choosing the name & the dress code. Any band name suggestions for 3 young teen lads on 🎻🎷& 🎹? 000
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 18/11/2024That’s a gorgeous painting. I completely get how that fits. 010
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 18/11/2024Yep. But either listen to or look at the keyboard original too. Mesmerising either way. 200
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 18/11/2024I’m wondering what your synesthesia would make of Les Barricades Mystérieuses. Either Couperin’s original or Thomas Adès quintet version. 200
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 17/11/2024I mean, the other one is entertaining to look at once in a while, if only to wonder what happened to my feed! 110
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Neither Petite nor Solennelle, but sometimes a lovely mess! 😉 110
Kate @kateviola.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Gosh - it’s like doing it all over again - but everyone’s already here! 👋 340
