84 (and one-half)

Yes, you're right, technically speaking it's not 85, it's 84. Cameron Carpenter is an organist. I'll have more to say about that once we get to talking about op. 10 no. 12, the "Revolutionary".

A couple of new Henle editions today. My old edition of the Nocturnes (Poland 1951) did not include the posthumous c# minor so there's my excuse.

Classicaloid Oneshot

An interaction of the classicaloids in the house:

Beethoven-“Gyoza, the flavor is like a timpani, the way it’s wrapped, the fillings, and the fl-flavor!! Makes me want to say SPIELEN WIR UNSERE MU”

Kanae-“THERE WILL BE NONE OF THAT. UNLESS YOU PAY FOR THE DAMAGES.”

Suddenly the door bursts open

Wagner- “WHATS UP ITS ME YA BOI! WA KUN THE HOTTEST THING SINCE BEETHOS BURNT GYOZA!!”

“GET YOUR REVOLUTION ASS OUT OF HERE. HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT MY GYOZA!”

Mozart- He’s not wrong beethos. But he’s annoying and so I say. “YOU NEED TO LEAVE”

Kanae- “There will be none of that. Wa kun just sit down.”

Liszt- “kanae, kitten, I normally LOVE LOVE but this boy is evil!”

Chopin- “he’s very mean. I’m going back to my room now.”

Schubert- HE MAKES FUN OF ME AND BEETHOVEN SENPAI.

Kanae: Sucks to suck. As long as you don’t pay rent, he’s free to do whatever he pleases.

KANAE!!!!

Classical Composer's and their last words

Classical Composer's And Their Last Words

Mozart: "The taste of death is upon my lips...I feel something, that is not of this earth"

Bach: "Don't cry for me, for I go where music is born"

Beethoven: "Pity, pity, too late!"

Mahler: "Mozart! Mozart!"

Chopin: "Now is my final agony. No more." (while listening to Mozart's Requiem)

Bartok: "The sad thing is that I leave with so much to say"

Berg: "But I have so little time"

Don't you hate it when you're trying to listen to classical music and pretend you're in 1886, when Spotify brings you back to the vile reality by chanting:

wANt a bReaK FRoM tHe aDs?

Bio & Stuff

So like everyone who read the description knows, this is a random blog dedicated to SUNSHINE because even when you want to cry about how bad you are at violin someone has to provide you with strength and it might as well be me.

Me: 19, she/her, very very tall, sfw only. Trying to be positive.

Now some of my interests. Twice + most ggs, and classical music! I play piano and violin.

Anime: Fullmetal Alchemist (manga, original, and brotherhood), Haikyuu! (kinda), the first twenty episodes of Hunter x Hunter (sorry), Ouran High School Host Club, & Death Note (only the manga).

Video Games: Breath of the Wild (& Age of Calamity), Skyrim (I suck), Octopath Traveler (god mode), Animal Crossing, Dragon Quest 11 (also god mode), Mario Kart (really suck), Super Smash Bros (but just me falling off), Ori and the Blind Forest, and some other Switch stuff.

TV: X Files (my favorite DOCUMENTARY), Downton Abbey, A Lot of Cooking Shows, etc. Also a bunch of movies.

Music: Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Ling Ling. Taylor Swift is the only pop I will listen to.

There will also be a lot of (bad) memes but if you like my humor then yay! Thanks. Feel free to ask me anything sfw. I will give (questionable) advice and I can chat. If you're in some fandoms I'm in, feel free to talk!

Note: This is a safe place for the LGBTQ+ community. No questions asked. I hope EVERYONE feels safe and respected, and if you have any questions/concerns, please bring it up kindly.
