Deleting my tumblr

Not going to be in tumblr just thought I'd mention it this site is really toxic and there was some drama on my main and I'm so not in the mental state right now for it. And I mean yknow there's a lot of good people and I learned a lot from this site but yeah. It's not 100% the end, I'm just deleting the app so my blog will still be here and I may revive it in the future but yeah no I'm leaving for a long long time. Goodbye all! Please try to be kind and respectful to each other and remember that being oppressed isn't a competition or a good thing or other toxic mentalities. See you later

A hot topic of debate between my section; Which instrument sounds the worst when played by an untrained musician?? What sounds the best??

nothing is worse than a noob violinist on the e string. that shit transcends elementary school recorders.

and the harp doesn’t sound musical when it’s played by someone who has no idea what they’re doing, but I don’t think it’s possibly for it to ever objectively sound bad

[official-contrabassoon]

I SEE YOUR VIOLIN AND I RAISE YOU: Oboe

Beginner oboes sound like nails on a chalkboard if the nails were like made of metal

[rileysgotitgoingon]

THIS IS WHY I HATE OBOES WITH A PASSION

[official-contrabassoon]

Mmmmmmmmm you heathen hath thou ever heard a professional, not a dillitante high schooler but a professional, oboist? I’d dare say thou has mayhaps in a film, but how peculiar that there is one fool such as you who is daring enough to share such an outlandish opinion. For that I applaud you my good sir. I still shall challenge you, sCOUNDREL

Do you ever just black out and wake up to find you typed an entire paragraph like some higher power just consumed you? :/

question: if the lowest strings on the violin, viola, and cello are objectively the best and most satisfying strings to play on, then why wouldn’t the bass be the best orchestral string instrument?

[official-contrabassoon]

Now I'm not an expert in string theory but I don't think that's how it works buckarooski

what happened here

[back-to-bassics]

Then I was young and unafraid

And memes were made and used and wasted

Everytime my eyes have the misfortune of setting themselves on any part of this post a little bit of what's left of my sanity escapes

Why reeds be expensive

Because God willed it

[pastel-pink-viola-blog]

[woodwind-goddess]

As the piccolo player in my band, I can confirm

[confusedbandkid]

As the person that sits next to the piccolo in my band, I can also confirm

[woodwind-goddess]

That’s rough buddy. My buddy Mike sits behind me and he commonly complains of the screech so I feel you

[official-contrabassoon]

Fun fact I love the piccolo because whenever I have a difficult part and the piccolo happens to also have it I can hear them above everyone else

[official-contrabassoon]

I've been playing bassoon for about half a year (in my 6th grade band) and my first competition is coming up soon, what should I do to prepare?

WOAH YOU'RE IN 6TH GRADE?? Ok dude here's my advice. Getting ahead in bassooning isn't very hard. You've got to be an overachiever and learn the things the teachers think you're not skilled enough to learn. Like higher notes. But my biggest advice for you to win any competition (especially at a younger age) will be to develop your vibrato (look it up on youtube) and maybe try to splurge on a professional made reed as opposed to store bought. that will make your sound elevate just that much more.

Cis white gay guy on tumblr: Accept all body types, skin colors, and identities!! Everyone is beautiful!!

Same cis white gay guy: *only reblogs tall cis white guys with abs* *turns down people that aren’t traditionally attractive or “masculine” enough for them*

[official-contrabassoon]

Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with liking masculinity or finding it attractive, I do too. But if being trans is the reason a guy isn't "masculine enough", then we have a problem.
