Hit himself in the foot with his staff. They used to use a staff to conduct with to tap out the beat. He hit himself in the foot. I think it got infected and he died because of it. He's the conductor famous for conducting himself to death.
Sometimes the younger one jumps at my lap while doing it, which naturally throws me out of my mojo.
"Lully died from gangrene, having struck his foot with his long conducting staff during a performance of his Te Deum to celebrate Louis XIV's recovery from surgery."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Lully"The Te Deum (also known as Ambrosian Hymn or A Song of the Church) is an early Christian hymn of praise. The title is taken from its opening Latin words, Te Deum laudamus, rendered as "Thee, O God, we praise"."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Te_DeumActually, it looks like Te Deum means O God.Farther down the Wikipedia page...Te Deum laudamus: = We praise thee, O God :Which means...Lully accidentally killed himself while doing it to a piece of music he wrote called, O God. Now you won't forget it for that music history test.
haha, my neighbors are so nosy. I can hear them listening in while I play, right outside the house! I'm like...why are you listening to me and having a conversation while pretending to listen to me, WHEN I'M TRYING TO DO IT!!!
Sandor wrote a book, On Doing It. I think it has pictures.Ottoman tried to measure how people do it. Some people didn't like his approach since it was very mechanical, not taking artistry into account, the subjective side of the experience.
That's what I was thinking after I posted that. I knew someone who knew Latin would come along.
I believe Bach walked 60 miles to watch someone else do it too.
That was Buxtehude. The walk was something more like 400 km (250 mi), and he stayed there nearly three months to watch Buxtehude do it. Bach must certainly have enjoyed the in person experience. As Bach said: "to comprehend one thing and another about his art."
Well I managed to get up. And I did it. Two rounds. What would be nice is to take some take from work and put that toward doing it more.
I don't think I've ever listened to this while doing it.
Well that makes two of us.
Nope. Just you now.
I nodded and carried one while the tuner took out his tools.
Think of the opportunities to use tools with your instrument.That's something that would probably have inspired Cage to do it.
For the sake of humanity, one can only hope Cage never did it.
Then again Cage may have done it silently. Would people observing know he was doing it when he was doing it silently?
Think of the opportunities to use tools with your instrument.
Sounds like you're talking about using a hammer.
We're talking 'bout Nicholas Cage right?
It is a sad state of affairs when I'm at a piano forum, and all three topics that I had new responses in all relate to sex.
I do find it a bit odd that the subject suddenly comes up so much But I guess it's as good as any other non-piano related topic as long as handled in a mature way...
I don't get it either. Then again, the subject bores the hell out of me, so I don't care.
How can you dislike something that produces heavenly sounds!?
Are we talking about sex or piano here? Because I'm pretty sure the former is an ungodly cacophony.
Why, we're staying on topic of course!
Each time I finish doing it, I draw a double barline.Best,Alistair
Sounds like a very professional and pleasantly aesthetic way to finish it.
Indeed - and as, in my case, the penis mightier than the computer and I accordingly use the former in preference to the latter when doing it, it is also necessary, after drawing that final double barline, to wait for the ink to dry...Best,Alistair
I smell a grammatical error...
But a deliberate and necessary one in the context, methinks...Best,Alistair
