a girl handed me her viola while she played mine and i immediately noticed how small the viola felt in my hands. and then i plucked the strings and was like hm i think someones put a G string where your C should be! and hey why’s your A sounding like an E? this is a funny looking viola dude!- OH.

#the joke is that it was a violin #can we normalize forgetting violins exist #as a viola player i believe this is how the world should be #viola #orchestra memes #personal #anecdote

things my orchestra class did while the teacher left for 2 minutes

Practiced normally for ten seconds

started a war

did a blood ritual with a band kid

kicked out the guy who dropped his bass

started fist fighting each other for the rubber duck my friend brought

killed 5 choir members

and a partridge in a pear tree

the head of the music department at our school is actually the best guy. he once stopped a rehearsal to give a speech on why we shouldn’t catch syphilis. he talked for like ten minutes in a lesson about a dog he saw in Birmingham once. he wrote the plot of a musical involving two people falling in love at a cheese club and called it Cheesy Love and tried to get us to write songs for it. when people don’t leave instruments in the lockers he prints out individual notes saying to put them away and sticks them on every single case. I love this man so much I cannot even explain.

The violist fear when you look ahead in a sight reading piece and there's ledger lines in treble clef 😟😟😟

the funniest thing happened at practice yesterday (orchestra)

me and my friend: *sitting there, violining away, happy to have the melody for once, even if we have to share it with the first violins*

my friend: *keeps ignoring accidentals*

conductor: *sighs, taking arms down, scowling at the music sheets to intimidate them*

me: *points at accidentals, looking at my friend intensely*

conductor (barely audible): it’s B flat for gods sake (then, very loudly) who in the violins keeps playing B?

violins 2: *intimidated avoiding eye contact*

my friend (whispering to me): I don’t get it

girl behind us: guess you’re just not that sharp

me: *bites lip to not laugh too loud*

my friend: *does the same*

*stifled giggles from harpist and percussionist* *whispering between the trumpets*

*stifled giggles and whispering from the flutes*

bassist, bassoonist (almost in sync, very loudly): I don’t get it

celli: *loud laughing*

my crush (also a cellist): *tries not to laugh but fails horribly, looks at me*

me: *stares back, blushing because she acknowledges my existence*

conductor (confused): what’s so funny?

me (whispering): nothing, just a very flat joke

girl behind me: nice

conductor: *chuckles awkwardly before going back to the usual one-week-pre-concert persona* we’ll take that again, from the top- don’t you roll your eyes at me, [crush’s name]

Okay!

Well I have survived semester one with my viola performance major! Jury was today, went pretty alright (they didn’t kick me out) and we have a lil viola studio party later this week :))

Here’s my advice: don’t freak out about stuff ok it’s never bad like I was so scared of solo class cuz you have to ya know solo for the class but it’s honestly fine because it’s just your bros

Juries are like a check in, I didn’t even get a grade just comments from the jurors.

You get so many besties! In quartet and symphony especially and your studio the most. At least from my experience, it legit does not matter your skill levels everyone is friends with everyone fr

Anywho, ask me about things! Im very bored now 😭

I VIVIDLY remember an orchestra meme like this but with Dipper from gravity falls. Recreated the vibes using pictures of star dream from kirby. If anyone has the original i would love to find it again

Being a musician (especially classical) is basically just “Yeah I love listening to it, but I HATE playing it lmao”
