Very relatable considering the guilt I feel when I ignore Mahler, Haydn and Sibelius because I’m obsessing over Rubbra 😩

I’ve really changed my mind about Rubbra’s 9th - it’s so beautiful. At first I found it a bit off putting. It took really understanding his style (and learning more about him) to actually appreciate it. I’m still not a fan of choral symphonies in general, but this one goes in the good pile!

Symphony No. 9

Ok, I've got a confession to make... I'm really not a fan of choral symphonies. There's a handful I like, but in general they just aren't my bag and this one.... goes on a while 😬

Ugh why am I getting the feeling that, as a trans woman, being predominantly attracted to men is especially cursed?

I’m remembering now how deeply unhappy the person on the left was. Transition didn’t solve all my problems, but it sure helped my problems become way more solvable

Car selfie of me, pre-transition, with stubble, body hair, thinning hairline and a very awkward moustache. Trying very hard to make a cool facial expression Selfie of me post-transition, wearing a floral dress, red lipstick, smooth face and body and a cute curly hairstyle. I think i look very comfortable with myself, like I’m not trying very hard

Coming back to the Rubbra symphonies. I tried to get into them earlier this year but put them aside as they weren’t clicking. Definitely clicking now! So far, I’ve familiarised myself with 1, 5 and 9 (which I actually quite liked this time round 😱)
