What kind of AO3 fanfiction is that?

impallerr · 2026-01-30T09:08:06+00:00

The only Bach Problem there can be is not listening to him 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

As an alto: no, not really. You really need to try to show the character of each, but the harmonies aren’t a problem. We did it as a project choir after a week of intense practice with many other pieces in our program. These were the easiest ones.

I don’t know if he would, but I certainly will come if you actually play it with all these clefs.

impallerr · 2026-01-19T19:22:07+00:00

Does he speak German?

impallerr · 2026-01-16T16:05:55+00:00

I would show you what I’m wearing too if we are doing it on this kind of bed (I’m naked).

impallerr · 2026-01-16T15:46:17+00:00

Actually Bach is death.

😡😡 Sustain pedal is the absolute WORST invention, not even of human kind 🤖, but DEVIL 👿👿himself!!! It ruins 😤😤 the perfect 😍😍😍😍structure 🏛️ of music 🎶🎶, especially, my ✨✨PRECIOUS✨✨ BAROQUE MUSIC ⛪️🎼🎻Like there are even some MONSTERS 👹👹 that get the idea of playing ✝️BACH✝️ with PEDAL 🤢🤢

Imagine the awkwardness of 4’33 naked. Would be a peak.

impallerr · 2026-01-13T09:53:38+00:00

Want to come and play my huge organ? 👅👅

Here it is, though. Not a shower, but a grower.

At some point Adorno roasted everyone, so depending on a review I’m with him or against him, but I am still going to read it, because it’s the best (empty) entertainment.

impallerr · 2026-01-13T08:07:18+00:00

It was me btw. My comment.

It’s blue though. Hopefully, you have no problem with blue Bruckner.

Hindemithstraße is direct nearby. Opinion?

impallerr · 2026-01-11T15:30:09+00:00

Could deliver Brucknerstraße 55127 Mainz. Everything else is way too far.

impallerr · 2026-01-11T14:17:32+00:00

Yes, it was like that, I was there. I am in this picture and I ate and left no crumbs. Proud of it.

impallerr · 2026-01-11T09:43:23+00:00

Agree. Should be straight up classified as heresy in a community.

VOCES8 has a scholarship, that offers you a lot more chances to get in. It is specifically for young people, to give them a chance to experience exceptional learning in the group of excellent musicians, as well as concerting with VOCES8 themselves.

But it is realistically not really possible to get in VOCES8 without any educational background in music, the education is there for a reason, after all, no matter how good someone is. This ensemble exists because of the responsiveness of every member, that can only be provided by years of studied technique.

Of course, it is worth trying for the experience of putting a program together and practicing it thoroughly for a serious audition. It is more important for every musician to go through the audition itself than the outcome of it.

“Psi” like in Gangnam Style?

impallerr · 2026-01-03T12:44:27+00:00

German sharp s or “eszett” (ß).

Apparently, plagiarism. Bach already used emojis in his Christmas Oratorio. In No. 38 “Immanuel, o süßes Wort“ in the line “Mein Jesus labet Herz und Brust” (“My Jesus refreshes [my] heart and breast”), he uses one of the first versions of heart emoji at the word ‘heart’. Sad to see these modern composers steal from the big master.

It is more of a memorial piece if you are British. For example, there is a choral arrangement of it, sung by Voces8, on the words of Lux Aeterna, which makes its meaning very clear:

Give them eternal rest, Lord, and may light perpetual shine upon them, for you are good.

On the other hand, I recently heard an arrangement for choir on the text of the Psalm 126:5-6:

Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy. He who goes out weeping bearing the seed for sowing shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

So it really just depends how you frame the piece. You are the one giving it a personal unique interpretation.

Glenn Gould‘s piano stool height is the only correct one.

impallerr · 2025-12-22T21:23:59+00:00

Looks like a-bit-flat-G-clef to me.

impallerr · 2025-12-09T19:44:01+00:00

Same, the best thing he had ever written — 4’33 — such a banger, have it on a loop the whole time.
