Youtube commenter: You said this, and I disagree
Me: I actually didn't say that, and I agree with you!
Youtube commenter: Don't get so defensive when people are trying to open up a conversation in your comments! 😡
Me: 😅

Great pianist #1: warming up with scales is good for your hands

Great pianist #2: the small motions of scales are bad for cold hands

Great pianist #3: a technically demanding piece is the best warmup

Great pianist #4: never start with the virtuoso stuff, ease into practicing

Me every morning:

When I was in a touring choir in undergrad, we'd stay with host families wherever we were touring, and one of my favorite things was when they loved to make jam and had soooo much leftover because they always gave us some ❤️

All praise to anyone who makes jam from scratch and then just gives that jam away to friends. Rock star move. No notes.

This is your periodic reminder that education (higher or otherwise) has benefits other than improving your capacity to perform in the labor market, and these benefits may in fact even be *more important* than employability.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

The thing is... musical creativity is extremely accessible already! It's the easiest thing in the world from a technical perspective! Little kids make up songs constantly.

My most one-brain-cell trait is that whenever I see video of someone playing the piano I am like “WOW how do they do that?!?! magic?????” even though I am a professional piano player
