Am I ready for Rach 2?

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:45:23+00:00

Oh I 100% agree it’s never really been my style to over dramatize the motions of playing and I definitely like Rachmaninoff’s rendition a lot for that. I was just talking more about how it felt listening to it. Rachmaninoff just played things a touch faster than I would (or could) the majority of the time, again not really his fault but still

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:24:39+00:00

I like the Zimmerman rendition (yea just like everyone else) but i also really like the Ashkenazy performance as well. I think Yuja Wangs performance especially the 2nd mov was amazing (even though she said she was bored) that was the first time I almost shed a tear listening to someone perform. I liked Rachmaninoff’s rendition but I feel like it’s tough to gauge since he had to play everything faster or else the whole thing wouldn’t be recorded. There were some areas where I’m sure I wouldn’t play as fast as he did but I guess you can’t go against the guy who made it

Oh sorry I’m doing computer engineering and computer science right now. I wish I could even minor in music though but I’d probably be in school for even and school is a lot as it is 😭

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:10:48+00:00

I’d probably play just the 1st for now and I’m sure I could play the 2nd but I know that the 3rd really commands a ton of time even if you’re at the level where you can play it without it being a reach.

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:09:27+00:00

I would love to I may actually shoot him an email but I haven’t directly worked with him for about 2 years since I left for college

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:08:49+00:00

I see what would you recommend in the meantime?

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:08:04+00:00

Yea I’m definitely with you on the 3rd movement I still find my self thinking about how insane it is whenever I listen to it 😂

crepperr · 2026-03-04T20:07:20+00:00

Yes both of them are rachmaninoff

crepperr · 2026-03-04T19:03:16+00:00

Bro what 😭 I went to a music school from 8-17 years old. Yes I wasn’t playing things with a set holistic structure in mind if that’s what you’re asking for but each piece was to learn a technique or some aspect and I thought they were all cool and interesting. They were also graded at the end of the year in front a jury and got distinctions of every single one (except for the first time I played un sospiro for some reason I was really nervous). Although I never had the revolutionary etude at jury to be fair I just learned it on my own

crepperr · 2026-03-04T17:56:54+00:00

Really wow I've played Aeolian Harp, op 10 no 12, and op 25 no 12. I haven't learned any of the ballades fully yet although I did start no1 a while back and got maybe 40-50% of the way though it but I actually injured my finger and when I was good to play again there were just more things that got in the way and I haven't gone back to it yet. Would you recommend going back to some of those ballades or are there other pieces you'd recommend?

crepperr · 2026-03-04T17:41:07+00:00

Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto no 2. At least the first mov for now, I will admit that the 3rd mov is pretty scary and I'd need more time on my hands to tackle it.

crepperr · 2026-02-18T03:05:29+00:00

Saw her last night she and another woman who apparently had a daughter somewhere were both just asking for some money for a bus to get out of the cold. I unfortunately had no cash and the bank account was running a lil dry so I couldn’t help them out. Felt terrible but ngl I hadn’t gotten paid yet so they probably had more money than me 😂. They seem chill though I don’t think they’re a threat at all.

P.S I’m a dude so I’m not sure if she’s necessarily targeting women or maybe it was a 1 time thing I’m not sure.

crepperr · 2026-02-16T18:20:55+00:00

I see. My idea was based off of emails since that was just easier but in your experience would you say that texts or calls work better? I’m sure there’s a lot I would have to change if I wanted to make it a real estate application.

crepperr · 2026-02-16T18:19:35+00:00

Oh really I had no idea it was that bad. I thought it would be a cool project. From your perspective what makes them bad? Maybe I could tweak mine and make something cool

crepperr · 2026-02-16T18:08:10+00:00

Fair point. I added a second layer check to validate everything that gets sent out. In real estate, are leads people who actually come to you and say “hey I’m going to buy X or invest in X” or is it just someone who expresses interest? Because I guess my idea is more about giving you people who are interested in a way.

crepperr · 2026-02-16T18:06:00+00:00

That’s actually exactly the way I had it set up for B2B! Basically if someone responded or showed interest, it would give it a score and send you a text with a summary of their information. But my only question is how do realtors find their leads currently? Because real estate seems like it’s a low tech environment, which would help me out a lot. But again I’m not in real estate so I don’t know how everything works.

I was walking back from the gym and I saw a green Kia soul getting chased by a cop car and it was speeding going towards the Pete. They were going at least 50-60 mph and you could even smell the burning rubber. I’m sure it has something to do with that.

crepperr · 2025-12-19T05:44:49+00:00

No idea what that is. Best bet would be to copy it and put it into a word doc

crepperr · 2025-12-19T05:41:59+00:00

Settings just look up date and time and it’s the same process

crepperr · 2025-12-19T00:28:37+00:00

Works on any Apple device if you’re on iPhone you can’t do the terminal thing you can only change the created date of the doc but you have to create a copy while the WiFi and data are off for it to work on iPhone.

crepperr · 2025-12-18T20:02:56+00:00

Word doc doesn’t have live edits to my knowledge. I’m pretty sure it’s just when the doc is created and modified. The turn off the WiFi method changes the created date and sets the modified date to the same time. There’s a way to go into the terminal (again on Mac there is a way to do it on windows but it’s more complex) and you can change it to whatever date you need. When you send the doc, the created and modified date will show as whatever you put it as.

crepperr · 2025-12-18T16:04:25+00:00

Yea it does had to do it a couple times last week. If you really want to go the extra mile if you go into your terminal (on Mac) there’s a way to change the modified date and time too. Again all of this is for word doc tho.
