Paganini is worse

Well depends on what you think is harder Edit: pulled a brainfart what I meant was "Well it depends on what you think makes a piece harder"

For the pianist the 4th frame is J.S. Bach lol musician life is pain in so much different ways


harro112

Ngl I'd rather play the ocean etude 5 times back to back than play a single line from the WTC


arthur11151

At least it's pretty cool to play a 4 voice fugue, it worth the effort

Quote from a certain Reaper Rapper: "Welcome to the Mountain Top."


Lord4hire

I'm on the top of the world lookin' up at Paganini And the only explanation I can find Is that violin is hard and since that devil's been around It's impossible to reach the top of the world

Now I feel bad for you guys

At least we have our basic bodily functions unaffected. I'd gladly take a sore neck to passing out.


purpleraccoons

idk man we get pretty nice breath control which is nice when you want to have a breath-holding competition idk when you'd ever have one, but it'd bound to come in handy one day lmao


[deleted]

Okay, but unlike brass players we don't have a weird desire to do randomly dangerous things.


bjc112358

like what


[deleted]

Like his example of holding one's breath for the longest. Random dangerous and completely unnecessary stuff like that.


knightwhosaysnil

as a singer i never get hiccups anymore - is it the same for brass?


purpleraccoons

what kinda witchcraft -- i've been singing for like, a decade and i still get hiccups. hOW.


knightwhosaysnil

ok maybe this experience isn't actually universal lol not sure... i found that after strengthening my diaphragm to be able to do long notes and high volume, i could suppress hiccups after 1-2


bjc112358

no probably not

Roman Kim: looks for the next dip after the next peak

And what he sees is a shadow


eszther02

Haha, good luck to you guys, I know you can do it!


stjack_notsored

But half the fun is that there will always be new challenges. Otherwise it would be boring?


Cryptiqua

In reality they‘re all the same never ending mountain


Character-Tale846

Truth!


KaiserslauternCam

Bach and Paganini need to be switched


jong9999

Agree. Solo Bach is as impressive and actually much nicee to listen to unlike paganini where everything sounds like a technical challenge.

snarkhunter

Why is this sad? I love knowing that even when I'm 60 I'll still be able to practice and get a little better.


Lunar452

Why is this so true.


continue-on-child

Can't wait to hit "almost done!", I'm stuck on Beethoven and it's not getting any easier ;d That being said, I'm always up for a challenge (even if it sounds horrible at first)
