Hello lovely bassists! ...and others
I doubt many of my followers are active as of now but I was looking at my old posts and wanted to say hi and give some updates (I'm sure y'all are very curious about the life of a minor music meme blog...)
I'm a senior in highschool now preparing for my senior recital! I'm really stoked abt the repetoire I'm doing:
Carmen Fantasy - Proto
Prelude and Tarentella - Gliere
Vocalise - Rachmoninoff
Proto is definitely my favorite. I'm not going to be a music major in college but I love the bass a lot and will always be involved with orchestra especially.
Some of the posts on this blog make me cringe now but it's all good fun. Hopefully you all have been practicing even without the encouragement of my memes 🥱

what the FUCK was Tchaikovsky thinking when he wrote the pas de deux for the sugar plum fairy????dude wrote that first buildup and then he fucking edges you with some fakeout crescendo that sounds absolutely amazing. then boom, you think he's going in for his big finish, he's got that second moment where all the instruments are coming together and it sounds otherworldly but he's like WAIT hoes I ain't even finished yet. then BOOM he hits you with the most magical, transcendent, beautiful fucking note change after that third buildup and MY GOD!!!! it's just too good. Tchaikovsky, that absolutely madman. I know the Russians were tripping the fuck out in the ballet when he dropped this. just,,MUAH perfection!!!

Conductors be like "I know a place" and take you back to that same f-ing rehearsal measure that you've been working on for 40 minutes now.
