Any idea what that woman at the rear is playing? I thought for a moment she was just reading at a podium (not that that wouldn't be a lovely experience.)

@otheorange_tag Gets it, or "gets it?"

Show-off. He made a big show of NOT looking at his fingers while he played that run.

@otheorange_tag I wouldn't want fingers that I didn't know where they'd been touching MY wood. But I guess.

That cello's been through some ... things...

@otheorange_tag Duels, probably. At least before they were outlawed.

If you’ve never been to Venice and plan to go for gondola ride do NOT look into the water🤢

@analgesicsleep Lots of sharks?

howler0502,
@howler0502@mastodon.social avatar

@analgesicsleep Or worse, sharks AND corpses? But I suppose that wouldn't make sense, you'd figure the sharks would eat the corpses, right?

Boyd playing guitar (no cello) She's obviously been through some things, and never got over that Venice fling from decades ago, there must be a story... I think this is one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard, supposedly by Albinoni, but some say it was some unknown guy trying to pass it off as Albinoni. This one is for @analgesicsleep last weeks gif reminded me of this.

@otheorange_tag @analgesicsleep In my head canon, her guy was eaten by a shark, now she tempts fate by playing guitar by the water as that's as close as she can get to her lost love.

Soloists should throw their bow into the crowd at the end of the performance, for the fans.

I think the first violinist has a crush on the conductor, he keeps looking at him, rather coyly in my opinion.

This beginning of the third movement is making me think of small forest animals.

Can't hear this song without thinking of Michael and Maebe (his niece) doing this song for karaoke at their company Christmas party. #ArrestedDevelopment #ILikeToWatch

@otheorange_tag Yeah, they got a few lines in before realizing what the song was about. 😆

I really wish I'd made my new years resolution to snort more ant pheromones.

I really appreciate everyone showing up for this! I was worried no one would. I've also invited my IRL friends and musicians who are mostly extwitter maybe they'll show too!! including some stand partners from OSU 1980s days :-)

@otheorange_tag It's a great playlist! It gave us a "bass-ic" introduction to Baroque music. 😀 Thanks so much for putting it together.

I really wasn't expecting to lead me to a mental image of a T-Rex going wild with an electric ukelele, falsetto growling a thrash metal cover of Tiny Tim's "Tip-toe Through the Tulips," but here we are.

@silverseasun His glorious rise to stardom before the inevitable cocaine addiction causes him to go on a rampage that would shame Godzilla! 😀

What kind of wood is most commonly used to make stringed instruments?

howler0502,
@howler0502@mastodon.social avatar

@silverseasun @MatthewTitus88 !!! I was wondering how those sides were formed! Interesting!! I thought maybe soaking it til it softened or something. Cool! 😀

Notice how far up the strings towards the bridge this guy gets!

@otheorange_tag It would be a very frustrating piece for a T-rex to play.

howler0502,
@howler0502@mastodon.social avatar

@silverseasun @otheorange_tag It's a shame T-rex's would be deprived of so many means of self-expression due to their physical uniqueness, isn't it?

Castanets are much easier to play than two halves of a coconut.

What's that pipe instrument that man is playing?
