1. Do not play concertos 2. Show up 15-30 minutes early 3. Do not look at the winds players when they have a solo 4. Bring a pencil and eraser to rehearsal 5. Do not talk behind people's Bachs 6. The inside player always turns the page 7. Practice before the first rehearsal 8. Watch for bow marking and changes 9. Listen, blend in and watch the conductor 10. Don't talk to your deskie too much

Oh, another really good one: when someone in your section has a solo, DO NOT FINGER ALONG WITH THEM....that is SO annoying! It's like you're a vulture, waiting for them to miss so you can jump right in. Also, don't hold up rehearsal by asking questions of the conductor that your section leader can probably answer....at least ask them first, or let them ask the conductor. And if it's specific to your instrument, ask the conductor during the break, so you don't waste everyone's time.

Also an episode on the art of practising in general. How to practise smart, efficient and effective and how you could schedule a practise session, in order for it to be all that. And not countless hours of mindless repetition with no progress. Especially because everyone tells you "to go practise" but no one teaches you, HOW to actually practise, in order to achieve the best possible results, in as little time as possible. Since it is so difficult to master practising and additionally having few guidelines on how to be smart about it, it would be very interesting to hear your thoughts, experiences, knowledge and wisdom on it. Love you guys❤

If you get a magnet ring for your pencil you can leave the pencil stuck on your music stand and never forget it. Plus there are magnets that also have a rubber coating. You can stick the pencil to the music stand from below which will make turning the pages easier.

I’m still a terrible page turner (it’s the dry skin), but I actually had to be taught to turn them properly, when I was a graduate viola student. Instead of putting the instrument down and turning with the right hand, continue to support the instrument with only the head and shoulder, and turn with the left hand. My classmate taught me, and 40+ years later, I taught one of his students, who we had just hired. This may not work for the violins, but it’s a regular practice for the violas.

If you have several bars of rests before a page turn (maybe even with meter changes), copy them to the top of the next page. That way, you can turn the page early and still safely count up to your next entry without forgetting how many and what kinds of rests you have.
@mrewan6221
@mrewan6221 6 ай бұрын
Yes. I always do this when typesetting parts. If there are several multi-bar rests, the page turn should be after the first set. If the rests are | --7- | - 16 - | - 16 - | - 8 - |, there will be more anxiety if it's | --7- | - 16 - | - 16 - | page-turn | - 8 - |. Much kinder to have | --7- | page-turn | - 16 - | - 16 - | - 8 - |, and preferably some sort of reassurance cue at the top of the page, even if it's just the name of the prominent instrument. Not all copyists have enough time to be kind!

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, but it’s difficult to put it into words. I’d love to hear more stories about your experiences. And not just yours, but the personal stories of other musicians as well. To hear these behind the scenes stories, somehow makes me understand the music better. I’m not a musician, but as a dancer I have worked with a lot of (middle eastern) musicians. Knowing these people and the difficulties they are facing, made me better understand what is going on onstage during a middle eastern concert. Until I discovered your channel I always saw a symphony orchestra as a body of anonymous persons just doing their job. That changed. I went to listen to some symphonies lately and it is much more relatable to me now. Your little stories in many videos made me understand better the people who play the music. And that makes the music more enjoyable to me. I don’t know if this makes sense to you.

You may put your extra set of strings in a jacket pocket, but the harpist puts extra strings in that bag on stage, along with Tibet Almond Stick to take care of all the dings and nicks the instrument get when being moved, and a dust cloth because they don't get to clean this instrument at home.

I taught myself, almost by accident, to listen to the other sections while playing in a community string orchestra as a teenager. I found that skill applicable to choir as well, and I'm always baffled when other people can't do it, or don't think to do it. You're playing in a group, you should be listening to that group!

On the page turning: I see it increasingly more often that the outside person turns the page because its so much easier for them to reach it since they sit on the side where the page is, that needs to be turned.

I have some: stop playing when the conductor cuts everyone off....don't be those people who just keep going on and on. One for woodwind players is, be aware of the tuning tendencies of the other instruments you're playing with, particularly the other woodwinds, so you can adjust intonation on specific notes that you know are problematic. And when you have a duet passage with another player, like bass clarinet and bassoon in the grandfather music in Nutcracker, make sure you balance, because the dynamic marking is ff, but the bass clarinet can play much louder, so the bass will have to come down a little so we hear both instruments' colors in that passage.

Dear Brett and Eddy, I love the relax atmosphere of this talk, with the nice sofa but I have a problem focussing on my two favourite talk hosts cos one is at the extreme left end of the long sofa and the other on the extreme right. The focus of the camera is on the two pretty cushions at the centre of the sofa. I am not nitpicking, just hope it can look better. Are the positions of the mic stands because of the microphones which may cause feedback noises if they are too near? Would cordless mic help or perhaps securing the microphones overhead as in some choirs help? Please dont take it the wrong way. I am truly grateful for the talk.

when I was in 7th grade, my middle school honors orchestra conductor had us record us playing a couple pieces to audition our school for something. I was definitely on the lower end of the skill of the orchestra, but I was in the back of the violin 1 section with all the best players. one of the pieces had a fast section and I rushed so bad on it during the recording, when I finished I realized I was like 3 bars ahead of everyone else. the concertmaster literally glanced back at the rest of the section and I know it was because of me. so when they repeated I just airbowed it instead and it sounded better. we ended up not making it and I wonder to this day if it was because of me. our conductor really wanted us to get in, he even went as far as to listening it on different devices and speakers to see which sounded the best and trying to predict which one the judges would be listening on to decide which pieces to submit.

On point 1: I've also seen a situation where a horn player kept flexing with the Strauss till Uilenspiegel horn solo during every break and before rehearsal. Eventually the conductor pointed it out to them, couples with the fact that they're destroying their stamina by constantly doing that. Which would not benefit the quality of the concert to come.

There was an anecdote about page turning and you mentioned a violinist, old, like 50... Could you elaborate on the issue of age in classical music instrumentalists? Age comes up in a lot of fields: some surgical specialties in the Boston hospitals and the Massachusetts supreme court have a limit of 70 (geriatric patients were traditionally defined as >=60 yo and that was changed to 70 a while ago).

… and the reverse. If you have no more music left, don't just relax down into your seat and switch off while the conductor is still working with other people. (I'm looking at you, choral singers!) Wait for the conductor to release the atmosphere.

Loved it. It's a rare insight into professional orchestras... and funnily enough... in our community orchestra it's so similar! I always get SO annoyed with the two girls that NEVER bring a pencil.
