Eat your heart out.
Really pissed at string ensemble. And I have been really pissed for a few weeks. It's just sickening, the kind of rubbish you play. 6 weeks to SYF, and your rhythm isn't tight, your intonation is atrocious, you have no sense of phrasing, dynamics or articulation. What are your section leaders doing? Playing on the damned playstation in the varese room.
Playstation be damned! This isn't the fvcking time to do video games. Stayovers. This is the time to work hard. Eat your heart out string ensemble, you're nothing more than a piece of bull.
So what if you topped SYF last time around? That's just because the J1s were around. And so they aren't around. You haven't adjusted to the bloody reality yet. They're GONE. And YOU'RE taking their place.
Sec 4s and 3s this is YOUR SYF. What are you doing? Farting around like there's no tomorrow. Second violins come up to me and say "*expletive* i can't play Suk". No it's not "Help me, I can't play Suk." but "I can't play Suk. So what?"
Eat your heart out, string ensemble.
Eat your heart out, Mr Sze. So I have to teach two violinists how to play the bass. "Look at things from a violinist's point of view." Don't tell me that. I have never seen a violinist's point of view, and I'm not about to start. Does the cello SL have to teach his newest members how to play the cello? Does the viola SL have to teach his newest members how to play the viola? No. Should I have to teach the new "bassists" how to play the damned instrument? To teach them how to read the bass clef? To teach them that 16 semiquavers is one semibreve? To tell them that the key with 2 flats is Bb major? To teach them that allegro means fast and allegro molto means faster?
Next, current bassists. Do I have to arrange lessons for them, when all the others arrange lessons for themselves? Do I have to teach them how to hold the bow, beg them to buy an instrument, to play in time, in tune, to practise? Do I have to give a blasted damn about whether they have access to an instrument? When they don't give a damn themselves?
Eat your damned heart out, string ensemble. If you even have one. Go ahead, go for your blasted SYF. Fools, you aren't even worth the paper it takes to print the Certificate of Participation. And do you realise that? No.
Go ahead, play the fvcking playstation every day, before rehearsals, after rehearsals, during breaks. Go ahead, dawdle along on the miserable circuit of life. Go ahead, don't practise. Don't bother checking intonation. Rhythm. Tempo. Dynamics. Phrasing. Bowing. Technique. Style. Polish. Half of you don't even know what those words mean.
