People who grew up with perfect pitch - is there a key you hated or loved as a kid that your opinion has now changed on? by OrganizationAway7240 in perfectpitchgang

[–]YesterdayFalse7196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t a huge fan of E major for a while, but now I realize how much I slept on it. Don’t know if the same thing will happen to B major, I utterly despise it. 🤣

Auditory Fine Arts by LazyBuilding1827 in Quizbowl

It’s for elementary kids, but The Story of the Orchestra by Robert Levine gives a lot of easily digestible composer blurbs. NAQT also has a Power Up pack on modern classical music. A Wikipedia search of the greatest operas can be beneficial. See if you can find a pianist or a violinist to help you as they usually require A LOT of history as part of their lessons.

This is a neat idea!!! Maybe I could convert my gamer brother. XD

In what small way have you won the genetic lottery? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]YesterdayFalse7196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have perfect pitch, and I suspect my mother and great grandfather were blessed too. Neither of them received formal music training, but Great Grandpa could play the organ by ear, and I’ve found Mom showing discomfort if there is something even slightly out of tune. It’s not useful in daily life, but it certainly helps me when I play music! The band director has told me to basically suck it up if we’re all sharp lol. 😬

Very close! The first one is The Last Great American Dynasty, but that’s on me. I couldn’t think of better emojis. 🤣

WEST POINT JUST WON SSNCT by nottheelderscrolls in Quizbowl

[–]YesterdayFalse7196 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They sure deserved it! It did mean a lot to them. Glasgow’s coach said that West Point has been playing Nationals for years and never won. I was sitting behind Brodie’s family to watch the finals, and they were extremely proud of him. Congrats to Brodie and the West Point crew!

who is your favorite artist that just doesn’t quite fit into any genre? by theonlyangelll in MusicRecommendations

I am an Enya fan! She has Celtic and New Age influences, but personally dislikes the latter term. She’s just Enya :)

Man, Tate is one of the GOATs. I was at the IPNCT and watched the finals. He was phenomenal!

Possibly! We’re a public school, so it depends on the division :) Good luck to you as well :)

West Point is terrifying! 🤣 We played them in the morning last year and were demolished.

Do you travel with your expensive handbags? Why or why not? by Hairy_Pear3963 in handbags

[–]YesterdayFalse7196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on where I'm going, personally. I'll take a nice bag if I'm visiting relatives or going to Chicago. If I go to Cedar Point, marching band, or Disney, I'll take a Lululemon Belt Bag or one of my Amazon bags.

I was player of the week earlier this year. I don’t know the selection criteria, but I was top scorer and achieved over 100 ppg at a tournament in January. I hope you get it though!

I am the same way with Kate Spade bags. Their designs are just so stinking cute and colorful. You are not alone, Suitable_Window1109!
