I, as a teacher, can honestly say that this is how it was 99% of the time

Signs that your apartment is occupied by music majors:

“hey what should we put in this picture frame?”

“idk maybe 21 photos of bach”

Mun's choir director had her own batch of pencils for this exact reason, and one of them had my signature on it so mun stole it when she left the choir.

As a piano nerd, allow me to reassure you that the reason that many Classical keyboard compositions sound terrible to you isn’t because you lack the background to properly appreciate them. I mean, you do lack the background to properly appreciate them, but they’re also objectively terrible, and the fact that you need the proper background to understand them is big part of why they’re terrible. They’re so preoccupied with demonstrating the technical skill of the performer that they totally forgot about actually sounding good, producing pieces that are comprehensible only to other keyboardists. And even we don’t really enjoy them – we just play them to torture ourselves, because all serious keyboardists are also masochists.

Or you could do both and torture yourself while sounding good at the same time, Papi has you covered!

a question for classical music tumblr

have i just not been seeing posts, or is classical music tumblr kinda dead atm? i miss all of the shitposting and the official-composer blogs and various carps etc. what happened??

Mod says life. I can't agree with that, as I am dead.

What is happening is me being very smart, keep up Bachling!

Cannot count how many times I've said this with my kids

Sounds like a plan

typos from the music library

for reference, at the music library I worked at the past year, we used an excel spreadsheet to keep track of everything. I had to sort through a bunch of music that needed to be filed away, but it was difficult to find things if there were typos in the spreadsheet. I spent about an hour correcting these before I realized that it might be funny to compile all of them. so, this is what remained after I had already spent an hour correcting typos:

-Paul Hindermith

-Franzm Biber

-Enrique Grandos

-Aaron Coplan

-GF Handle

-Johann Sebastian Bachm

-Johann Sebastan Bach

-Johan Sebastian Bach

-Johann Sebatison Bach

-Johnan Sebatsion Bach

-Johana Sebastian Bach (one of the past music librarians really had trouble with this one)

-viola spelled as “violin” accidentally a few times because of viola erasure

-JS Bath

I appreciate the sheer random dedication it must have taken to get my name wrong so many times in so many different ways

Love Johnan Sebatsion

u ever just get in a Bach mood?

it’s called life bitch

This just in: I am life
