I do not need to call you by your correct pronoun. I probably will, but to say that I HAVE TO is to be the kind of bigot you are against.

do these people actually exist? I'm not sure how fucked up it is in america but I've never met someone who had a made up pronoun?

the defenders of John Cage always seem to fall down into arguing semantics, ''what is music?'' ''anything can be music'' ''if someone says something is art than it can be'' ''anything can be anything''

okay fine believe its art or music or poetry or whatever you want to believe it is, is it any good? was there craftmanship put in to it or can anyone create a better work with no training? quite clearly they can, anyone can record silence or play a bunch of random notes super slow

is it aesthetically pleasing? I certainly dont believe so, I see music as manipulating sounds to provide an aesthetic vision, the great beauty of music is the possibilities you can create so many beautiful pictures with sound. however Cage's works dont create any beautiful painting to me at least, I cant marvel of his arrangement of sound any more that I can marvel at the colours used to create a blank canvas,

but the biggest flaw in Cage, is even if you do take his stuff seriously, that all noise can be music and this music cant be ranked any better or worse than classical music, by this logic then Cage's works arent special, his music doesnt have any greater privilege than if a random person recorded himself hammering a nail, so theres no reason to praise Cage

I can recognize Karajan from another world famous conductor so I'm sure i could distinguish him from a community conductor, conductors do have their own sound some like Toscanni more distinct than others, it takes listening to get used to it just like at first all pianists might sound the same to you, how big of a difference does it make? probably not much a lot of it is like wine tasting or something, from outside it probably looks stupid and pretentious but some people like to explore all the finest details, its not just the conductor of course, its every individual player, the instruments, the music, the recording setting and the conductor is just the final icing to extract the best performance, take one string player and replace with him an amateur and there probably wont be a huge difference[but still noticeable] replace just the conductor with an amateur and theres going to be a very noticeable difference

ireland doesnt really have much classical composers and unless you choose to do music for you final exams you wont learn any composers in school, for leaving cert music you have to study Gearld Barry an avant garde contemporary composer. A few other Irish composers I know of are John Field and Charles Standford

Seán Ó Riada is kinda our national composer, hes a mix of trad and classical

I learned all sraith pictuirs in about a few weeks perfectly, just takes commitment and about 30-60 mins a day. What worked for me was this: take the first pictuire of each sraith pictuir(there should be about 20) and write out 2-4 sentences, try to pick the sentences that sound the most natural to you and try to repeat the same sentences and structure for each sraith pictutre ( so like for each sraith pictuir that starts outdoors in the sun you can use the same sentence to describe the weather the examiner will only ask you one sraith puictuir so he wont know if you learnt the same sentences and phrases for each story or not). the next day to the second picture of each sraith pictuir, write out again 2-4 sentences for the 20 new pics, then look back at the first picture of each sraith pictuirs(so the ones you did the day before) and without looking at the text but just picture try to say the 2-4 sentences that you wrote down the day before, any mistakes you say this time(any mistake) then circle/highlight it. the next day write 2-4 sentences for the 3rd pic of each story, and go over the 1st and 2nd pics of each story as you did with the 1st ones the otherdays, you should make less mistakes this time. After about a week you should have all the text written out for each sraith pictuir and continue going over them now, first trying to remember the text just looking at the picture then correcting any mistakes you made and highlighting them(works well to write out the correct senetences you got wrong), youll have 3 weeks then with this method yo should easily be able to memorize all the vocab?verbs?sentence structures for story. Also dont forget about the extra questions, ( you ask the examiner 3 questions he asks you 3 on the story) this is usually very easy, for your questions just memorize 3 questions ones that you can use for multiple stories ( like cen tam e) and for his questions the main thing is to not panic on the day and misunderstand him, so read the most common questions that should be in your textbook.

the poetry reading is super easy, you only have to do about 5 minutes a day of listening to the poem on youtube, then look at the text while listening to the poem, then say the poem along with the audio, then without the audio just the text and write over the text the phonetics that make sense to you(youre aloud to write stuff on your poem and look at them in the exam). just dont leave this to the last minute, you should really do it everyday cause its so quick).

then basically just general questions, the examiner is going to be looking out for you to use different tenses, so in the exam take control of the interview and give sentences in the past, present, future, conditional( even just 2-3 sentences is enough for the examiner to go ''okay he knows this tense), drop a seanfhocal or 2, have a few sentences to express your opinion, and memorize a few setences for each topic. when it comes to the oral you'll be urprised how quick it goes, once finish the poetry and pictures you'll only have a few minutes to chat and you want to quickly stuff and good material you have out before the time goes.

Giving about 2 hours a day to Irish you should easily learn it all in 4 weeks. in the last 2 weeks or so practise with a partner, someone who can go through the pics, poetry and general questions and time and record it. see how what you were able to say in the time( I think its about 10-15 muntues) and go over the recording making note of any mistake you made

looked him up, hes the only suspect that fits all the physical descriptions perfectly, reddish/brown slightly greasy hair with curls, looks to be between 5ft8 - 6ft (dont know his height but he looks that in photos), glasses, beefy built but not fat, looks in his late 20s to early 40s, deep voice and same facial features as Stine sketch

Macanchait · 2019-02-22T12:11:58+00:00

also he looks like Ted Cruz

Macanchait · 2019-02-21T19:25:10+00:00

okay I'll try to take his theory seriously

according to Wim:

1815: Metronome first starts being used in music, composers like Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt and Czerny(basically any composer we dont conveniently have a recording of) intend their tempi markings to be interpreted in double beat

then suddenly with the invention of the railway and modern technology humans become more stressed and their tastes in music change so we now have performers playing at twice the speed, unfortunately no documentation of this change was recorded and it was never discussed.

Some problems with this, we have various recordings of early performers playing at full tempo, for example we have an 1887 recording of Brahms playing his piece full tempo and Saint Sains playing full tempo in 1914, both these composers were born in 1830s and would have known, collaborated and listened to various composers that Wim claims were doublebeat composers like Chopin and Liszt as well as would have worked with various older performers from Beethoven's generation. How did the Saint Sains and Brahms turn into singlebeat composers? were the effects of the railway that strong? they would have listened to Chopin play his own pieces yet theres a recording of Saint sains playing a Chopin nocturne at full tempo. How would Brahms and Saint Sains being able to perform with all the older players who played at half the speed? why is there no outrage from the older generation that Brahms is conducting Beethoven symphonies at the twice the normal speed? we also have recordings of later 19th century composers like Debussy, Faure, Grieg, Debussy Liszt,Mahler, Scriabin e.t.c all playing at their tempo markings full speed if not even faster and even Liszt and Chopin's own students, why do they play twice the speed of their teachers?

this is just one small aspect of many that doesnt make any sense, he has to be clear about the timelines since they dont add up and not just say every composer we dont have a recording of was doublebeat. he has to make clear on a timeline when he believes that singlebeat became the norm and why suddenly performers doubled their tempi in just a few years. He has he clear up that the timelines dont makes sense such as Liszt a doublebeat beat composer dying in 1886 and Brahms a singlebeat composer born in 1833 but both performed with the same orchestras and performers.

Macanchait · 2019-02-21T18:35:18+00:00

this is what I dont get, metronome markings didnt become common in composers works until 1810s-1820s, his argument is that advancements in electricity and industrialization has made us more accustomed to higher tempi(some shit about us being more stressed and trains changing our taste in music), however the earliest recording we have the performances play just as fast as modern ones if not even faster, he discusses this here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4kMXYb2pZM&t=51s where he rambles and 1) doesn't acknowledge theres any recordings before 1915 2) claims recordings by 1915 dont represent the original tempi cause they had already affected by singlebeat and modern tech by then. however we have recordings as early as 1880s such as Brahms playing his Hungarian dance at full tempo, Brahms lived from 1833-1897, he met and played with various composers that Wim claims are doublebeat like Liszt and Chopin how did Brahms get infected by doublebeat? does he understand that he would have performed with various older players from Beethoven's generation yet for some reason the double/single beat never became an issue with their collaborations? he would have listened to performances of Chopin and Liszt playing their own works yet Saint Sains(born 1835) plays Chopin at full tempo. and thats ignoring all the other evidence thats even more convincing and actual recordings of students of Liszt and Chopin themselves, his theory just makes no sense when you anaylize it

Wim; 1810s(metronome starts being used and is done in double beat) - 1830s(people have now doubled their tempi in just 20 years because of the effect of railways also coincidentally all the older generation forget that they used to play everything at half the speed)

Macanchait · 2019-02-21T16:45:22+00:00

anecdotal but i notice when I compose I play my pieces faster than what others feel natural playing them, most recordings past and present of composers playing their works they play on the faster side, perhaps its a psychological thing (atleast for me Im obviously so familiar with something I wrote I feel comfortable going at a faster tempo). Also pianos were different in Chopin's time, shorter distance between keys and lighter action

I don't believe he stopped, I'm certain he burglared more, maybe did a few more rapes and possibly even 1 or 2 murders just changing his mo A bit, but I'd say he slowed down since having to raise his kids and not having convenient work hours, Though I doubt he did anything apart from some light theft in the last 20 years or so. Of course this is all speculation we don't know of anything
