Tonight
Since I'm done with finals and my jury, I'm watching Return of the King tonight. Anyone who wants to join me is welcome to do so.

	You're done? Ugh, you're so lucky! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	It's one of the many advantages of being a brass player at the school. Our juries are earlier in the week, something I'm immensely thankful for. Anyway, want to join me for some Lord of the Rings? You can study while you watch, I guess. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh I'm just a performance minor, my jury isn't really a big deal. It's the theory final I'm worried about, sigh. Um, maybe? I don't know, the plot is sort of involved, isn't it? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Which theory class are you in? Because the final for my section of 101 wasn't too hard. Lots of part writing, identifying appogiaturas and leading tones, that kind of thing. Have you not seen them? Eru, what is wrong with this place? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Right now? 231 and and 251. Lots of aural skills and structural analysis. I've got pieces I'm supposed to be ear training with. Um, no? Sorry? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

What pieces? I assume if you're in an upper level aural skills you're dealing with tonally fragmented music. Are we talking Berg's violin concerto or Webern? I'm not really a fan of either, but pitch-wise they'd be good for ear training.

You have got to watch them. They're some of the most critically acclaimed movies of the early 2000s, and the last film alone won eleven Academy Awards. You can't argue with that kind of brilliance in film-making.

	Well it doesn't really matter what they sound like. As far as the maths are concerned, they're both pretty darn close to perfect. Have you studied Bach's fugues? Absolutely insane, but so flipping beautiful on paper. Oh. Um. I liked Legally Blonde? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Perfect mathematically, maybe, but not so much fun to play. The Bach fugues are amazing, though. ~~Bourgeois crap~~. That's nice, I guess. I never saw it, so I can't really talk about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well that's why I'm not a performance person. All I need is the stuff on paper. Oh. Well then. You're really missing out. (Reply to this)(Parent)
