quotes from my baroque ensemble:
(aka our teacher being done with us)
- âwhy did you choose this tempo?â âour inability to go fasterâ
- âdonât put vibrato on everything, otherwise the important notes wonât be important anymore. itâs like putting ketchup on all your food.â âew gross ketchupâ

- âmy improvisation is called an improvisation for a reason. I actually have no idea what Iâm doingâ
- âwhat does adagio meanâ âslow?â âno. it means âat easeââ âWHATâ
- âa triosonata has three peopleâ â...â
- âfrench works are the hardest. This isnât even completely French, itâs pseudo-Frenchâ âbruhâ
- âhow about we add in terraced dynamics, ya know, because itâs the baroque periodâ âNO.â
- âplay with energy!â v1: breaks a bow hair
- âthe whole piece is crotchets and arpeggios, so itâs very repetitiveâ âlike my jokesâ
(quietly) âglad youâre awareâ
