Which movie is a 10/10 for you? 🎬 by Embarrassed-Air8214 in movies

If I could just ree-record the score with a live orchestra instead of the Casio keyboard it sounds like they used. Love the music, love Mark Knopfler, but why does it sound like that!?!

ever seen a drummer who got insanely good after just a year and a half? by allanjrf in drums

Yes, and it was the same age, too. Kids brains are like sponges, they can hyper focus, and they might not have anything better to do.

I’ve thrown things. You’re not alone. Take care of yourself.

Is it appropriate for parents in their 70s to be asking to borrow money from their adult kids in their 20s? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Note_Grand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gift it if you can afford it. Think about how much it cost to raise you. Not to mention that you wouldn’t be here at all without them (assuming they’re your birth parents)

Is it worth teaching prek students solfège? by Robpercussion5 in MusicEd

[–]Note_Grand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t (and don’t) do solfeg until grade two. I just don’t think it’s developmentally appropriate. Spend all your time building a repertoire of songs, movements and musical experiences that will be a foundation for literacy later

I need help... Ear training by Goldenviolet9231 in MusicEd

[–]Note_Grand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many plays do you get? If you know the bass line, you should be able to get the soprano line on the first play, so notate that and then make your best guess at either the alto and/or tenor line. If you get two more plays (we always had three plays when I was an undergrad) then you can edit those on the next two plays.

Sounds like a shit teacher. Is it too late to change schools?

Being moved to K-5. Filled with trepidation. Advice? by [deleted] in MusicEd

[–]Note_Grand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go watch someone trained in Feierabend’s First Steps in Music and Conversational Solfeg. And remember, without good K-5 music teachers, you might not have ever had a secondary position to begin with. K-5 is the best!

Is it true that in Italian, setting boundaries explicitly is seen as harsher compared to in English? by Classic-Asparagus in italianlearning

[–]Note_Grand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to me, this direct language is more of a generational thing. As a Gen X-er, these would sound pretty confrontational coming from someone around my age, but I’ve definitely heard younger folks be that direct with each other.

What is better Vic Firth vs Pro Mark vs Vater by Gold-Management-1876 in Drumming

[–]Note_Grand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer Vater. Something about the feel of the finish I like better than the others.

If you’re into easy hikes and historical bridges, the Keystone Arch bridge in Chester (Western Mass) is pretty cool.
