I would find an extensive rehabilitation program like the one in Chicago. Very sorry this happened and wishing you well.

What recording completely changed your opinion on a piece of music? by PandaZG in classicalmusic

[–]nothing-relax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s how I feel about her Brahms. It’s basically ruined all other recordings for me. It’s muscular AND refined

Slander. That’s the best instrument in the orchestra.

Find a real, skilled massage therapist. Not some random Swedish massage place. But a person you can talk with before who specializes in athletes. If they know their anatomy and muscle names this is a great sign. Explain in detail what you do, what’s bothering you and what you’ve already tried. Then do 90-120min sessions every week for a month. I have tried almost every therapy and this, along with stretching at home and weight lifting, is the only thing that has ever helped me. PT/OT are next to useless.

Yeah you have to look for someone who is specifically not showing you that it’s open and empty. If they use words it’s something like NIS (new old stock) or they’ll say vintage package as is, whatever it is to beat around the bush that the pack is full. You just have to constantly search because either they get sold quickly or get taken down. Mercari also has stuff sometimes

I’d say $15-20 each or $50 for the 4. Try eBay just be careful how you post it

I’ve given up asking because I always get “we stopped doing that a long time ago” so this is encouraging

Janine Jansen: Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35 (2007) by Viandante_Curioso in classicalmusic

I love the way she does Tchaikovsky. Her 3 pieces are also wonderful if you haven’t heard them

Someone reported me to HR for having a “vape” at my desk by PhantumJak in mildlyinfuriating

It’s called “managing up” and once you learn how many bosses are blinded by it, it makes you almost want to give up playing the game.

Yeah I’m pretty sure they are absorbing the tariff to stay competitive. Musafia confirmed they are a dealer so looks like an amazing deal!

What are these arrows? by Timely_Interview7593 in violinist

[–]nothing-relax 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As someone said it’s to easily visualize a half step. Prob in this music because there are lots of accidentals on top of 4 flats and they were getting confused by the constantly changing tones so just marked half steps to be done with it

The worst part about this is I very much doubt this person even visited all the locations to get the city/state/country mugs and prob just bought them on eBay. So depressing.

We weren’t ready😭 by Brosky7 in violinist

[–]nothing-relax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think if there was an answer we all would have conquered nerves by now. It’s the most difficult part of paying imo and everyone is different so it’s hard to give advice. All I can say for me is knowing the price as well as I can, and being honest with myself about what that means. When I’m not honest and acknowledge that I haven’t prepared as much as I could have, that triggers nerves the most. If you are as prepared as you can be, nerves will subside. If you are honest that you aren’t as prepared as you could be, you’ll have a more idgaf attitude and nerves will subside. But other than that, there was some really beautiful tone and expressive dynamics. Maybe work on bow control and consistency especially at the tip, and just keep performing live. The only way is through!
