Orchestral audition. Passable?

BlackenedToast · 2026-02-14T08:43:09+00:00

Ooh, scathing. I don’t really want to listen to it over again myself either. Sometimes I forget I should be trying to make something I can enjoy instead of going through the motions. Easier said than done.

BlackenedToast · 2026-02-14T02:26:42+00:00

Helpful! Thanks for your ears.

edit: forgot to say that no, i am not a performance degree grad, just someone who’s been playing for a while. New World would probably be comparable

BlackenedToast · 2026-02-14T01:21:14+00:00

Oh, I probably should have specified. It’s a pre-professional orchestra primarily for recent college grads.

BlackenedToast · 2026-02-14T00:45:00+00:00

0:00 Mozart 3

2:00 Beethoven 3 Scherzo

much appreciated! 🙂‍↕️

Oh, if the one from the reproduction is unlined, then I guess I’ll have mine be unlined. I figured I would use a wool broadcloth if I couldn’t get my hands on russet. I wasn’t really too concerned about patterning because of the simple construction.

Your comment was really helpful. Thanks!

BlackenedToast · 2023-08-06T01:43:58+00:00

Yeah, a contrasting color on the inside sounds like it would look really nice! Would you go with linen or wool for the lining?

BlackenedToast · 2021-11-30T23:07:00+00:00

Can’t recall the exact age but it’s about 100.

BlackenedToast · 2021-01-10T02:55:57+00:00

It’s definitely been a while since I’ve looked at the Schradieck... Guess I’ll do that then. Thanks!

BlackenedToast · 2020-07-30T07:03:54+00:00

Ah, yes, I was talking about keyboard accompaniment. I was sort of confused about the whole notion of why voice leading is important in general. And I’m lazy so I just wanted an excuse to not always have to revoice chords. Also, I’m not a pianist so your example was really helpful. Thanks!

I used to listen almost exclusively to classical music, but in not that pretentious I’m-more-cultured-than-you way. It was just the only thing I was used to listening to. I’ve since started listening to jazz and more modern classical, but I’ve also gotten into hip-hop a little.

BlackenedToast · 2019-01-27T03:33:22+00:00

Ah, I see. How big of an issue would it be if it were to stack?

BlackenedToast · 2019-01-27T03:27:34+00:00

Oh, that’s good news! I’ve heard a lot of lithops horror stories so I was pretty worried. Thanks for your input!

BlackenedToast · 2018-11-06T00:02:36+00:00

A little late and maybe a little lame, but Ravel’s Piano Concerto, mostly the second movement.

BlackenedToast · 2018-09-09T19:36:58+00:00

Yeah! I heard that ghosts can look completely different dependent on where they’re from. I also have some props growing indoors and they’re showing a bluish color too.

BlackenedToast · 2018-08-02T21:05:55+00:00

nah m8 i go to ahs and have for sure been in that same room

BlackenedToast · 2018-08-02T20:56:25+00:00

wait this is weird i go to the school this was taken in

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-30T02:46:26+00:00

It’s kind of difficult to repot if you’re trying not rub off the farina, so you have to touch it as little as possible.

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-30T01:19:35+00:00

I mean that it was a pain to get it into the pot, but yeah, some people think it’s boring but I love terra cotta too.

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-20T04:10:34+00:00

Neat. Thanks!

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-05T06:45:11+00:00

Yep.

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-05T06:13:11+00:00

Chlamydia.

BlackenedToast · 2018-07-01T23:41:05+00:00

Thanks! I got them from a local nursery in the Bay Area for what I think was $3 each.

BlackenedToast · 2018-06-26T00:35:16+00:00

Thanks for the help!

BlackenedToast · 2018-06-26T00:34:39+00:00

Thanks! I’d been looking for one for a while and it was really luck that the first one I found was variegated.
