1st Violinist: HA! I GOT THE MAIN PART

2nd Violinist: yeah, the harder part

1st Violinist: oh shit, you're right

[musicmajor]

Conductor: Okay today we're going to run the whole piece without stopping.

Conductor: *stops every 2 measures for 2 hours*

Conductor: *only gets through half the piece*

Strings when they mess up

violin 1: what is this, 7th position?!

violin 2: the tremolos go on for 21 bars though!

violas: *counting 30 bars of rests*

cellos: there are ShIfTs!

double basses: it’s all the same. And it’s barely audible anyway.

I obviously chose the wrong cello to practice for midterms and my slo with today

Dear Mr. Orchestra Dierector

I know that the violas asked for more interesting parts, but we meant melody, not ridicuLOUS ARPEGGIOS AND OCTAVE JUMPS

Cello Problems

The rockstops all disappeared, so the entire section is either balancing their endpins on the stands or are down to one shoe. Only one tuner is present. It has seen many hardships. Someone’s peg slips. The section leader is summoned from their century long slumber. An attempt is made to fix the A-string. The entire orchestra is watching in fascination at what (for them) is a menial task. The powers of Thor are invoked in order to wrench it back into position. It snaps. Now we’re all screaming. There’s no escape. Chaos reigns.

It's jury season and I finally made the copies of my sheet music because I have no time for page turns! Make sure you're prepared for yours!!!
