Yoder Hey, Cobalt. Welcome to the Refuge! I see that you're already enjoying yourelf here. Formalities over: Wow! Lot's of music talk. Hah, and I understand every word of it, too (my sister is an amazing singer, so I was always aroud music terms and theory). I love music. For me it is a passion. I love to sing, play handbells (if anyone else in the world knows what they are, I'd be forever happy), and compose techno. Yeah, I'm a techno junkie. *hides from the flaming wrath of Goosey and Cobalt* Yay handbells! heart I've only played them since January, but they're loads of fun. 3nodding Also, I enjoy techno, too. Just because I'm a classical music nerd doesn't mean I only enjoy that kind of music! heart

Finally! Someone else who knows what handbells are! Hallelujah! I was part of the advanced handbell choir before I left my old school. I loved handbells so much and that is probably my only regret about leaving. You may have heard abou my school's handbell choir, because we actually went down last year to play at the presidential inauguration. It was so much fun! Which bells do you like best? I did the D and E (including all of the sharps and flats) above middle C, most of the time.
Well, I like classical music, too, but I just figured that, like most people, you don't consider techno to be music. So many have just called it "noise", yet is is so much more than that.

So much talk of music, I'm so glad that musical arts have finally stepped up into conversation here...There's just so much variety in the world....languages, culture...but it's music that can unite us all!! *strikes a pose*

*raises hand*
I... am a techno junkie too...
*grins*
I want to work on my own stuff in my spare time, sometime in the future (after I get the right equipment, and shtuff)...
If I dont wind up busy all the time, or wind up in a major band, or something....
But its the Bass that my heart belongs to...
The double bass with the woody-heart beat to hold an orchestra together...
The electric bass, which I will eventually come up with some solo songs of my own that besides for possible singing, the music will be bass-only...
Did I mention that I love my bass?

Aw, that's too bad. I like shurch, just not mine, because they are so uber-legalistic. They just make up stuf that isn't even in the Bible for the fun of it as it seems. Why adhere(sp?) to standards that your religion doesn't say you have to?
Same here with the piano, Kyou. I didn't mention it, because I think practically everybody knows how to play or has played the piano. A true maxim, for sure.
Yay for another techno junkie! The bass is cool, Goosey!

I kinda bounced around in my handbell choir, so I don't really have a favorite to play, but boy, those low low bells are TRES COOL to listen to. And the really high ones too, if they're played well in a nice, resonant accoustic. And I would actually agree that some techno is just noise - but there's stuff like that in any genre, classical included (believe it or not). But I do enjoy the good stuff. 3nodding

Yeah, the low and high are cool, but I liked my notes, because they would play more often than the lowest or highest ones.
Yeah, that is true. Some is, but that is actually a sub-genre of techno. There is some group that has taken all of the great classics by Chopin, Beethoven, Handel, and Bach and made them techno. It sounds awesome. I think I have heard the classical of which you speak. Was it around during the 1930's-1940's? I can't remember what it was called, but it was meant to be played so it didn't harmonize.
Oh, that sounds horrible, Ive. I'm glad I never got into strings. I would hate if that happened to me!

Haha, yes. The experimentalists of the last century have come up with some really crazy-sounding stuff, some of which is cool, some of which is cool only as a concept, and some of it is just plain terrible. In my opinion, music needs to have a purpose - and its first purpose was to entertain. Now, there's nothing wrong with music that exists because it's something different, but it should exist for its own sake, too. I think some experimentalists and modernists don't think that way, and they're the ones whose music I tend to think is just noise. But there are also those who argue this: what is music, but organized noise?
