Q: What got you so hooked on orchestra-type music in the first place? A: I don’t know, to be honest with you. I guess what I enjoy so much about it is that it can be very boisterous in-your-face type of music, and then all the same and sometimes only a few bars later it can be melancholy or mysterious. Besides, who wants a singer telling you what to think while you listen to music? Many composers leave the music to be interpreted by the listener. Orchestral music is something that you can’t force yourself to enjoy; if you don’t “get it” you never will. Now, if you want to “get it” than you can. And another reason I like it—much wider range of repertoire—seriously try a couple hundred years worth of joyous noise. Q: Do you play an instrument? A: Yes, I play the violin and piano. -- Well, those were the only two questions that I received (and then thanks to Le Kun and Crystal Flute for involving themselves.) -- On a much more interesting note, this is “be a fangirl for one moment” day. Go ahead. Squeal about some guy. Paste the link of his oh-so-hot picture in your comment. Just trying to make everyone feel like they can share. Or give someone a chance to be weird [because I know your dying to]. And I’ve just noticed that I always put words in those damn brackets. Oh well. I like them too, thanks for asking. -- 7 more days ‘till that concert which I haven’t explained about to anyone. You probably don’t need to ask. You probably already know. …okay, maybe not. But if you really want to know, go to TCO's Website. Ta-ta.
