  1. I gotta call you on this one fizzy classical is an accepted term for all of theose composers Classical with the big C is not

    It is generally accepted its true - but i donta like it :D . lol

    Wedding you say.. Congratulations, jubilations and all that jazz B)

    Hope you have a gudun

    :D

  2. Yeh. thats the one. Goes on for hours i know, but there's so much creativity in it.

    I find a lot of "classical" music is in the understanding. Things often sound better if i know what the composer was getting at, or why things happen. I cant imagine myself writing anything quite that long. Jazz standards usually involve a head and chords (which usually follow the head).

    Also as a kind of side track... bring on the wierd and wonderful stuff. B)

    :D

  3. What i noticed when i built my bass was that time and money are inversely proportional to each other...

    The more time you spend, the less it potentially costs and vice versa. The more you spend on tools, generally the quicker the project will move along.

    I made the big mistake of sacrificing some quality to improve time and cost together.

    What im trying to say i guess... is that you could use a lot of sandpaper, but to get good results it would take you a hell of a lot of time. Alternatively you can spend a little money on the right tools and the job will take less time.

    Like these guys say.. find a bandsaw or scroll saw to save a lot of time, but if you have the time to spare, you can try a hand saw of some kind.

    hope that helps... or at least makes some sense :D

    B)

  4. But do you ever think you'd be able to get a ninja and a pirate to mate successfully?

    It would most likely have to be cloned and we all know what that leads to..

    Bearded ladies and mice with ears on their backs. Poor little guys. B)

    :D

  5. Thats irony for you lads. I count (quickly it must be added) upto 5 gramatical errors in one sentence, complaining about someone's grammar.

    Live and learn...

    Never tell someone whose first language is not English, that their English is poor. Chances are its much, much better than yours. I know it's much better than mine. Then again I am from the North of England B)

    :D

  6. im going to be pedantic and point out that not everyone in that list is a classical composer. (romantic, baroque etc.)

    also, i find it difficult to pick one out than any other. I voted other. As a personal preferance i would say messaen comes close to best because he wrote the music in a way no-one had ever done before. Its music that has to be understood to be heard.

    For piano music, chopin, for "classical jazz" sammy nestico (if messaen can be thought of as classical then dates dont apply).

    I think my two fave "classical" pieces of all time are The Planets and the Ring Cycle.

    :D

  7. true yep.. but funly enough it paved the way for all of our music notation software needs to be answered by the likes of sib.

    like said, what annoys me most about sib is the price. Do they not feel they could sell more if they just lowered the price by a few hundred?

    :D
