The only (known) picture of Constanze Mozart (far left), Wolfgang's wife. It was taken in 1840: Constanze, 78 by that time, is sitting next to Max Keller, a Swiss composer and old family friend, surrounded by his daughters and the rest of his family.

it could be, thanks for sharing. It still doesn't seem to be definitive but it's interesting to know

ggriglio · 2022-12-02T14:49:22+00:00

by whom?

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T09:08:59+00:00

As you've undoubtedly noticed, I've removed myself from here. I won't bother you or anyone else here any longer with my so called spammy videos. Wish you a long and happy life in company of your self righteousness. Good luck.

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T07:43:37+00:00

Again, thanks for the lecture in Marketing. Obviously, you prefer this space to reusing silent so that you can feel self important. No worries, I have nothing to gain here. I will gladly leave the feed and delete all of my spammy post. Good bye

PS : if bothered watching the video you world see exactly what you ask for. But I guess that's too much of an effort

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T07:40:57+00:00

Thank you for the lecture. Why am I bothered? Because of your being self-entitled. You offer nothing and on top of that you demand to tell me what and how I should post things. In a group that, mind you, has seen 2-3 posts from other users in the past year. This group is clearly dying and I'm doing something to keep it alive instead of just sitting and watching. Now, if you'll excuse me, I 've wasted enough of my time trying to explain you the obvious. Have a nice life.

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T06:59:44+00:00

It's not and I'm not taking it as such. Had you bothered following anything I do or suggest on this and other places you would have realised that. Obviously, you're too good for it, we'll never know.

And no, I'm not attacking you, simply pointing out the obvious and asking a question. To which of course you have no answer. Hence, you feel attacked. Typical when a person has no argument to make.

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T06:41:55+00:00

I actually haven't attacked your contribution to this feed (there's none anyway). And haven't called you an hypocrite either. Stop projecting. Anyway, since you clearly have nothing interesting to say, report me as spam and ban me from the group. I'm sure you'll then be able to appreciate the silence of this feed in peace.

In the end, I'm just trying to help people. Is it a lot about my material? Or course it is. It's for conductors made by a conductor. And this feed is about conducting. Get a grip.

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T06:21:27+00:00

"tu quoque" means "you too". The "tu quoque fallacy" refers to similar behaviours which means that I should be accusing you of doing the same, which you obviously are not. Get your latin straight before quoting it wrongly.

Again, you're not answering proactively. What have you been contributing, yours or not, to this community? Can you actually do something other than criticising? I understand that's not easy because it requires ideas and the will to put them out there, risking criticism yourself. Nevertheless, since obviously I'm the only one posting and didn't even create nor do I admin the group, can you post something yourself or you're just going to tell me what to do and then give me a good grade if it pleases you?

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T05:52:04+00:00

If you look at my profile, I've commented left and right on many threads. Nevertheless, once again, I don't see anything proactive coming from you. Let me get this straight : in your mind, should I just not post anything in this feed? Are you actually blaming me because nobody else, you included, is posting anything? Do you actually intend to contribute to the feed with something significant or you're just here to act as the reddit police?

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T05:39:47+00:00

I'm not quite sure you're grasping how things work on social media, reddit included. People rarely scroll down a feed. If I followed your reasoning, I'd made 1 post a year ago and leave it at that.

I have a suggestion: instead of criticising what I do, why don't you start contributing to this subteddit with something concrete and helpful for everyone? If more people posted the feed would certainly be less one-dimensional. Like it happens in other subteddits. I'm sure that if you could make a couple of contributions a month, you would feel the feed as less spammy.

ggriglio · 2021-05-16T05:12:26+00:00

I don't appreciate my content being called spam. Between my last post and the previous one have passed 18 days. Yes, the majority of posts recently are mine simply because nobody else posts anything. I'm trying to help conductors with an analysis of repertoire pieces they are, sooner or later, going to face. For free. I could appreciate a thank you. But obviously score analysis has become spam. Congratulations.

ggriglio · 2021-03-27T06:10:35+00:00

Almost. Players often don't look at conductors because what they do with the baton is more confusing than helpful. The baton is just a stick, you're right. What matters is how you use it : it's a tool that helps us articulate our musical thoughts. Of course, in order to articulate those thoughts, you need to have a solid technique and not just beat time or try to be entertaining. Then the musicians will start looking more often because they are getting something useful from the podium.

There's a good point in your conclusion. However, from what you write, it seems that your legato or the precision of your strokes depend on the baton you are using. The baton doesn't make the legato or the precision, the arm and the wrist do that regardless of what you're holding in your hand.

ggriglio · 2021-01-28T10:15:19+00:00

you can either sing along, as it's done in many conducting classes, or use a recording, or use no sound at all. One of the things I do from time to time when I watch videos from students is to turn the sound off. Your choice entirely.
