Eric Whitacre’s annual encouragement for music majors:

“As the semester grinds on you may feel intensely burnt-out. You may even consider dropping out of music altogether. If that happens, go back and listen to your favorite recordings, make music with your friends, do anything you can to remind yourself why you loved music before you started studying it. An education in music can be a very good thing, but it can also squeeze the life out of any love you ever had for it. Don’t let it.” 

Good luck and keep working hard to all our music major choir clowns!

I want a sitcom like The Office/Parks & Rec following classical musicians so that every episode, someone says something relatable then says "Can I get an Amen Cadence" and then it pans to someone at the piano, who plays a plagal cadence and no one questions this.

Reblog if you think the fine arts are important and worth keeping in schools, colleges, and universities.

Non-classical instrumental music:

I had to record tracks of one of his pieces for a honor choir rehearsal CD. So I learned Kusimama because they were paying me, and... I can confirm all of these bullet points, even after singing just one song. Sorry, Jimbo, but... Richard speaks truth. 

Here at UCF, our drum majors are actually knights.

I don’t march, but I would pick up a mellophone in .2 seconds if the drum majors were actual knights. This is beautiful.
