So I figure I might as well do a bit of journaling so that anyone who wants to add me as a friend knows something about me.
So I play in an orchestra. Until now, I've been the ONLY bass player. It's been wonderful. This week we have a new addition. At first I was excited. I love playing with new musicians and I love meeting new people. My hopes were dashed when I quickly learned that he had a fatal flaw, and couldn't play in tune. I've discovered that there is nothing more difficult than trying to correct a musician who has played longer than you yet is sitting in the second chair. They get upset rather quickly....agh...the politics of music....
Now off to Big Band rehearsal. At least there I'm still the only bass player.
