Anyone who has ever performed Handel's Messiah could probably score multiple wins on this board.

Re-veal-ED!!!

Novello vs. Schirmer fails

"Why are we doing the Easter parts at Christmas?"

"Just sneak a breath somewhere!"

I'm embarrassed to admit I understand *maybe* 10% of the bingo card above 😓

My love of music is mostly visceral & almost entirely unmediated by intellect, though.

Not saying my ignorance is a good thing; just admitting to it.

@netspionage
Don't be embarrassed at all. Most of these things would only be heard during rehearsals. Maybe you'll have the opportunity to sing it someday. If you join up with a decent community choir, there's a good chance it might happen.

Everyone comes to their musical experience in their own way. All paths are true ones for those who walk them.

@voltronic

Yeah, gonna say...

I LOVE music, and life without it would be a mistake; that said, I've proven utterly incapable of *making* music - and not through lack of trying, believe me. The only instrument I've had even the remotest aptitude for is the piano...and even that, only barely...and out of a variety of beloved instruments. I have tried. Trust me.

As for singing...yeah, No, don't have the voice, can't hold a note or carry a tune. You'd find cats in boiling water more melodious 😬

@voltronic

I *would* say the sound of me singing has sent people BACK into therapy, though if I'm being honest, fairly certain none of those people were ever *IN* therapy before, so...it'd be technically untrue 🙄😂

Notably, as I love listening to music ever so much, I'm a huuuuuge music consumer, and have LOTS of respect for those with the talent to compose and/or play it, and even more for those like yourself who understand the "technical" aspects of it, which you rather obviously & abundantly possess.

I have loads of respect for you (I'm far too arrogant to idolize anyone: don't take it personally), which is to say I def. find your posts fascinating, though I can't claim to understand 100%.
