5 Levels of Cursed Out of Tune Violin Playing

You guys should play with your ears completely covered so you just play by muscle memory and don't hesitate and when you listen back on it you realize the horror you've created

4:57 you don’t have to ask someone if they have perfect pitch; they will tell it to you

[@1412mariLU]

I had a music theory professor who didn't tell his students. He gave it away in one of the very last lessons, because he mentiones something only somebody with perfect pitch would know, so we figured it out. But it wasn't his intention to tell us. So yes, *most* people with perfect pitch will tell you without being asked. But not every single person ;)

[@salomaocabral8816]

​@@1412mariLUWhat did he mention?

[@1412mariLU]

@@salomaocabral8816 I don't fully remember. We were looking at progressions and one student played something at the piano. (This is where my memory isn't clear anymore.) I think the prof said, that it remembers him of a different piece but that this other piece is in a different key. At this point he was sitting across the room and couldn't possibly see what key the student was playing in. We got suspicious and he got a little shy and admitted he had perfect pitch. We always just thought that he was a true master in hearing any note in any chord progression, because he had amazing relative hearing abilities and was super quick transposing things in his mind. I mean, he still was super quick with written music as well and a great teacher in general. But I asked a couple of other students that had him in different classes and they also didn't know he had perfect pitch.

[@caliparri]

Eddy never fails to flex his perfect pitch

[@CsZsolt]

Right. Though that perfect pitch has no worth if he doesn`t also have autotune with it, in his hand.

[@adambe1126]

I had my first ever solo performance with orchestra a month ago playing lark ascending. It was very hot and midway through the first cadenza, my d string slipped flat by a quarter of a tone or so. In a piece where the overtones are so important and the open d is used so much, it was less than ideal to say the least (and this was my first performance with orchestra and I was playing with no music). It was definitely an experience.

[@kd3684]

For fun may I recommend Twosets 'The Lark DESCENDING (Chromatically)' video?

Note to self don't change E-string directly before performance. When I was doing a recital at uni my E-string started going flat. I was moving up and up and up the fingerboard then it decided to go totally slack so had to play the rest of the movement with only 3 strings. Could have cried! 😂😂😂
