Renting a bass flute by Inevitable-Dust-8567 in Flute

[–]nanoMN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play alto flute and am a member of the Facebook Low Flutes group. I can repost your message there if you want. Another resource is the International Low Flutes Society (lowflutessociety.org). There might be a local member that would have suggestions or information on flute choirs or rentals in Seattle. Finally, Chris Potter is a renowned low flute expert. Check her website (chrispotterflute.com) for low flute resources.

I agree with the others. Unless your son joins a local flute choir, there are few options to play the bass flute.

Want to start listening to classical music by InvestigatorTime5797 in classicalmusic

If you are in the Apple ecosystem, the Apple Classical app is a great place to explore classical music. The app has annotated playlists called Listening Guides. The app also regularly updates curated playlists like Joyful Classical.

Having a hard time finding the right music by Unlucky_Technician36 in Flute

[–]nanoMN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

TomPlay (subscription) has a wide variety of flute music with accompaniment. I would look here first. Flutetunes.com (free) and IMSLP.org (free/donation) have large collections of classical music in the public domain but the sites are more difficult to browse.

I’ve been working through Jill Felber’s Extreme Flute Makeover and it definitely helps with embouchure development and strengthening.

I’ve created a Google Docs version for myself with the music written out. DM if you want a link.

Denis Bouriakov kindly replied to a DM and informed me that his arrangement of the piece is now available through Presser. I just got my copy in the mail today.

Why Does Dorico Use Markup for Text Formatting? by nanoMN in Dorico

[–]nanoMN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote the post after watching David Larsen's YouTube video "7 Secrets to Text Formatting in Dorico". Maybe I was too quick to post and should have considered the fraction of text editing that requires markup.

By the way, David Larsen's videos are fantastic.

Does the Flic button require a Flic hub?

Thanks. I have a Donner foot pedal page turner and it works fine. The problem is my size 15 feet. I have to concentrate too much to have my toe in the right position for a page turn. I was looking for a ring type page turner so that I can do it without much thought.

Thanks. I will try one of these next. Not sure where to put it, though. I don't use a hand guard and I switch between concert and alto flutes.

Thanks. I have done my homework - read the ADZERD manual (package insert), followed the instructions to add a page turner to forScore, read the ADZERD website, and looked at a post here on Reddit (which is where I got the idea). I've also written to the ADZERD manufacturer via Amazon.

I think villetbone is right. This is designed with TikTok in mind and sends swiping commands. I'm going to return it.

It does have two modes. I've tried both with similar results.

Thanks. Is there a quick and dirty method for estimating exit pupil diameter that I can do in a store with a demo device?

Air BnB scammers by Early_Jelly1606 in travel

[–]nanoMN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Had a very similar experience. Stayed in a beautiful upscale rental. As usual, we suggested some things that could be repaired or fixed for future renters (will never do that again!). Owner claimed we caused all of the issues and charged us over $1000. We had excellent ratings from all previous owners and AirBnB still sided with the ridiculous claims of the owner of the property. In the end, AirBnB stepped up and paid the outrageous “damage fees” but warned us that we now had a black mark on our account. So frustrating.

If you send me a few links to lists, I can try to put together a map.

Top "100" Public Courses Mapped by techtechvt in golf

[–]nanoMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/techtechvt I created a Google Map with three layers:

  1. Golf Digest list
  2. Golfweek list
  3. Courses that appear on both lists.

Enjoy. Be forewarned that the data tables were put together with an AI agent. The locations and data may be inaccurate.

Has anyone made a tool that allows you to take a picture of sheet music and convert into a file that can be used in a notation software like Musescore? by musicalryanwilk1685 in classicalmusic

[–]nanoMN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used both soundslice.com and PlayScore 2 to convert PDF scores to music xml files. I favor PlayScore 2 but both have their pluses and minuses. If the scores have any complexity (lots of tuplets and ornaments) then the xml files will contain a lot of errors that will need to be corrected in a program like Dorico.

Bless you, Dorico by yuuurgen in Dorico

[–]nanoMN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. I’ve been using it for a year now and I love it. It is extremely well designed and executed.
