Hi guys!
I know you haven’t seen a lot of me, but I still lurk around here sometimes. I’m sorry to say that you might continue to see this kind of sporadic activity for quite some time in the future, as I have been accepted to start the graduate music composition program at my university! It’s super exciting, but I’ll also be super busy.
Long story short, I’ll still be around every so often, but there’ll be long breaks between posts.
Thank you all :)
Cat mute for euphonium.

imagine… Alma Deutscher: Finding Cinderella
Musical prodigy Alma Deutscher aged 11 (seen here with younger sister Helen), is staging her first full-length opera, Cinderella.
Composer, pianist, violinist… Alma learned to read music before she could read words. She began playing the piano aged two and at four years old she was composing her own music.

Here’s a link to Alma’s YouTube channel. She’s incredibly talented, intelligent and well spoken. And a total sweetheart.

Some of you actually stood up and recited the pledge of allegiance in school and it shows
i stand but i don’t face the flag nor do i recite
I approve
You’re officially invited to my Heck The Rules Club^TM that I just made just now
The band kids at my school had first block in a seperate building. That building generally turned the intercom down, or off. Once the principal came in and watched our class, as he do, ya know. He was upset that we didn’t do the pledge. So the next day we had to stand and do the pledge. The only person who participated was the teacher. We sat silently. It was a group decision that wasn’t discussed before hand. He said ok. Later that week a petition was delivered to the principal about the pledge and how none of the kids wanted to do that. He doubled down, and told the teacher to send any kid not participating to the office. The following Monday when his policy of sending the kids to the office was in effect the entire band class was matched down to the office.
With our interments.
The principal tried to lecture us and the trumpet players were not having it. The drum major ran us through every song right there in the office.
After that the pledge was optional.

Wendy Carlos
For people who might not know - Wendy Carlos is a trans woman who was deeply influential in early electronic music and hugely involved with the push to have synthesizers seen as real instruments.
Some of the movies Wendy Carlos did the soundtracks for, that you may know:
A Clockwork Orange
The Shining
Tron
She has three Grammys, and a lifetime achievement award from the Society for Electro-Acoustic Music in the United States.
Oh and she also takes photos of eclipses that are so good Nasa uses them.
Her discography is here!
And here is a more recent photo of her with her cat, Pandora:
Flute friends!
What rep do you like? I’m looking for a piece for my last undergrad jury! (ugh that makes me feel old.) I love French and modern/ contemporary, but am open to pretty much anything.

this is the future liberals want
Or maybe the future that composition majors want…
How’d you guess?
Types of people: Musical Instruments
Violin: black coffee, perfectionist, early mornings, winter, precision, a bit of a show-off, always trying to improve, does not know their limits
Cello: gentle hands, warm smiles, autumn evenings, long showers, old parchment, comfortable silences, wants to make everyone happy, content with what they have
Piano: monochrome, clean lines, clean hands, perfect posture, biting sarcasm, emotionally cold, late nights, sees the world as black and white, a little lonely
Flute: daydreamer, an early bird, gentle smiles, sunrises, spring days, tea, always trying to improve themselves, small acts of kindness
Clarinet: tired eyes, very caring towards loved ones, long naps everywhere and anywhere, soft melodies, sad songs, summer, longs for peace
Trumpet: red lipstick, loud music, will fight you, quick temper, confidence, bold colours, stargazing at midnight, euphoria, uncontrollable laughter
Harp: sunny days, lazy mornings, golden, soft voice, lullaby, surreal dreams, lives in their own world, a strange kind of wisdom, likes to be alone
Def a violin here
These are Accurate

I WOULD ACTUALLY CRY

Hey Dylan, do you take constructive criticism?
Normally yes but not on something like this that I know is perfect.
I made a gingerbread Tchaikovsky ( ＾∀＾)❣️

I’m thinking of starting an music/audio discord server for musicians, composers, and audio engineers. Would anyone be interested in joining?
yes! (I don’t know anything about discord though)

I know there’s a lot of tension after Tumblr’s new policy annouced for December 17th, but reblog this if you aren’t leaving Tumblr so that other blogs can know they aren’t going to be completely alone!
