Rehearsal Notes

[av8rmike]

"Let's try playing it the first way I described, and see if I hate it."

"Think heavy, but soft. *pommmm* Like laying your hand on a pillow. That's probably the strangest analogy you're going to hear from me tonight."

"I'll sing the horns tonight. I'll be horny."

We read through the Barber "Adagio" for strings tonight, finally, and it got me thinking. In only a few years of recent playing, I've already started repeating pieces, only some I've played on both first and second violin parts. Among some of those:

Beethoven's Symphony #8
Gabriel Faure's "Pavane"
Barber's "Adagio"
J. Strauss' "Emperor" Waltz
Theme from Star Wars
The Nutcracker
...probably a few more I'm missing.

*grin* I would love to see a rehearsal with Jason. He sounds like he is so much fun with whom to work. ;)

...horny, eh? O_o

The "horny" comment was practically under his breath; from the lack of reaction, it's likely not many people heard it.

And, be careful for what you ask; I may be schlepping you to a lot of rehearsals next time you're here.

Even more funny if no one else heard it! :D

I figured that'd be the case when I was there, considering you have at least 2 performances, correct?

Nice icon. ;)
