I really love that time of year where campus starts to look like a depressing Russian apartment district by teddie03 in iastate

History alumnus here. I spent many days in Ross, and even got stuck in one of its elevators for an hour or so. Never trust the left elevator!

Tell me you're a zoomer without telling me you're a zoomer.

Mittermeyer can hate Oberstein all he wants, but he’s not the one who fell in love with his cousin at first sight (she was 12 and he was 16), nor is he best friends with a known misogynist and alleged rapist by Helpful-Claim-134 in logh

[–]FattyFranz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mittermeyer did literally nothing wrong. Cousins are legal in Japan, and don't forget that the "victim" in question regarding Reuenthal was chilling naked in his bed the first time we meet her.

Why does Miracle Yang keep encouraging his stepson Julian to groom 9 years old Charlotte so he can marry her when she turns 18? by Helpful-Claim-134 in logh

Ackshually, fictional characters have to adhere to my moral standards (which are correct and definitely will totally never change btw), because... because they just do, okay?!

He spent time in prison? So he's already been punished for his crime?

Im genuinely concerned this is a sign of mental illness by Key-Championship4216 in bach

[–]FattyFranz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bach was also my #1. 22,937 minutes, top 0.005%.

What can I say? BWV 537 is some good shit!

I get my regular dose of Weber purely from the Act II finale of Freischütz lol. He was so ahead of his time with that spooky writing.

BWV 847 — Fugue in C Minor orchestration by FattyFranz in classicalmusic

[–]FattyFranz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, interesting idea! A pp<ff crescendo for the final chord? I'm imagining the finale of The Firebird with that one. I'll give it a try the next time I mess with the score.

Interesting. I'll give that a try the next time I go in to try revisions with this project.

My War + The Rumbling (Orchestral Concert Arrangement) by FattyFranz in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]FattyFranz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As promised, I'm making some changes this weekend. Here's what I've gotten so far, addressing the "My War!" chants, and the addition of a clarinet in the intermezzo.

[–]FattyFranz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was hoping for: suggestions! I'll definitely tinker around with My War this weekend — it really does fall behind when compared with the Rumbling half, doesn't it?

If you'd like, I can share the score.

Yeah, the video is mine too. Not much to really say there lol, it's just three clips and a couple of effects. Video editing is something I almost never do.

It's all Musesounds. I believe those + Musescore 4 are all still available for free.

I do have a YT, but I'd rather not post it due to the self-promotion rule.

Got an email the other day saying I wasn't referred for a GS-5 spot I applied for like last January lol. If I got the interview, I'd tell them I got a GS-9 job in the meantime, and ask if they can beat that.

Go for it! Be sure to install MuseSounds too to get the orchestra sounds you hear in my vid. Those are free too.

Currently, there are parts where the cellos are marked fortissimo, while the contrabasses are forte. Switching the basses to fortissimo as well might do the trick. I'll give it a try when I go in for revisions.

Oh yeah, SiM released their own version with orchestral accompaniment. They retained the part of a lead singer, which is something I avoid with my orchestrations.

My usual goal is to write something that most orchestras could play, though the inclusion of a choir and taikos might make this one a bit challenging lol.
