LOL...I can handle the Viola, but the Violin escapes me.
I like them LOW notes!

Blessed Easter to You.
:-)
I listen to some guitar players and wonder if they have a third hand in there somewhere! LOL.
Interesting day, I awoke,thanked the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost, crossed my chest and things went wide LOL

You play viola?
I cant play but I am a bass head
Just because Jimmy is a funny guy
Rock on
Wooooo Wooooo
That concerto which I believe is Rachmaninoff's C-minor is the only long hair music I spent money to get.
It was played by Alexander Brailowsky .
I would never complain about a pianist playing it from showing some emotion.
As a matter of fact I would like to see the pianist kick the stool out of the way and play the last few minutes standing up. -Tom

Rachmaninoff goes to rock and roll high school
I TRIED to play Viola. I did marginally better on the viola than on the violin.
But the bass is my instrument of choice.
Bass, Guitar, Piano, Organ, in that order.
Kind of like Pete Townsend smashing his guitar at the end of a song?
LOL! :-)
Good on you for trying
Here is one last musical jewel
Blistering Bass eh?
Gosh, I loved Vinyl! That 12” square jacket was perfect for art, and the sound was so warm (that is, until the record got all scratched up!)
My Childhood, pre-teens, adolescence, young adulthood was replete with piles and plies of vinyl! What I didn’t have, I got out of the deep stacks of the Library. Columbia, Capital, Warner/Electra, Motown. Stax/Volt, Atlantic, Melodiya, Angel, Deutche Grammaphone, Apple, RCA Victor, Mono, stereo, quadraphonic, Hi-Fi, Long-Playing, Dimensional Sound, 33 and a third RECORDS!
I loved them. They were my dolls, my toys, my pets, my inspiration, my friends, my companions, and my magic carpet.
That first new album, carefully slitting the outer plastic to keep it intact and protect the art, sliding the inner sleeve out so carefully, smelling the vinyl as you eased the record out of its sleeve, being careful to only touch it by the edges, placing it on the turntable and delicately...oh so delicately placing the needle on the blank edge and letting it find its way to the music.
The music...it could be Mahler or Rimsky-Korsakov, Verdi or Rod Stewart, The Stones, the Doors, Bessie Smith, or the Beatles. or even Uzbeck Sheep-shearing songs or the Don Cossacks.
I LOVED my Vinyl.
Gnight my friend
and thanks for the rock and roll weekend
