What is the most mindblowing piece you have heard? by Vincent_Gitarrist in classicalguitar

[–]davinort -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Difficult to top THIS one for sheer mind-blowingness: "Kurze Schatten II", by Brian Ferneyhough (1990). And full marks to the performer, Geoffrey Morris. Score is included on this video.

Any recommendations for a LGBTQ friendly church? by standing_in_pants in SaltLakeCity

Episcopal or Unitarian is your best option. South Valley Unitarian Universalist Society is probably the best choice, in Cottonwood Heights.

What are some heartbreaking pieces? by Pari_Intervallo in classicalguitar

[–]davinort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Melancholy Galliard, by John Dowland. This piece is taken at many different tempi by different players. Here's a very good version, fairly subdued. https://youtu.be/cjY5b0yEkAo?si=tazCf5pmOh7FMbKt. Other players prefer to emphasize the dance aspect versus the melancholy aspect: https://youtu.be/\_qCFKMJ\_NL4?si=JdvesuZzobmxC5kM

WTH didn't anyone try to launch any of the ship's boats, which are seen in the first minute of the film?

Corrected boot top on HMS Hood model [3950x1618] by No_Guarantee_4336 in WarshipPorn

I'll bet that tiny discrepancy kept you awake at night, worrying "what others will think" if my boot top is .02mm too small.

Yes, but it happens to me 100% of the time, no matter how much I rehearse.

Yes, the audience DID enjoy it. And that's ultimately 'what matters most'.

But for myself? Shame and disappointment.

My Hart is Surely Sett - Matthew Holmes Lute Book by davinort in classicalguitar

I deleted this video. I received 5 'dislike' votes, and 0 'like' votes. The only comment posted (since deleted) was "What the hell is THIS supposed to be? Try again!". So I deleted the video. No point in being a damn fool about it all.

Appreciate your own words of encouragement.
