Classical Elitism is Great!

By Lyons on March 23, 2014 8:06 am

This week I've been rehearsing in orchestra nearly everyday and I've enjoyed some of the music but dealt with the inherent elitism and 'orchestral' musician attitude lots. The bottleneck of orchestral jobs and inflation of musicians really creates a disgusting competitive scene. Being the 'newbie' on the block is not a nice place to be.

This track was written straight after rehearsal in 30 minutes and I recorded everything in 1 take. Though I was feeling rather uneasy and stressed this piece does not transend those feelings surprisingly!

Your line-fluency is really improving.

Nicely done, especially with such time restraints!

Yeah, orchestras are rather cut-throat I've heard

Good beginning; you should definitely expand it.

Beautiful arrangements as always!
