As the "What Song Are You Listening To" threads have been invaded multiple times, might as well just start one devoted to classical music.

... and PSALT, trumpet better than the clarinet? Wanna fight about it? Trumpet is a nice instrument... it's impossible to compare the two. _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself
Is French Horn really that hard? Our horn players can't really seem to control certain notes. _________________ www.freewebs.com/tenniswallpapers by myself and x.doublea

French horn is apparently one of the most difficult instruments to play. To players in my band crack a lot, especially up high. _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself

choke your own bile, you fat whore, the trumpet is so much better.
lol! I am kidding. I was bored earlier and was having a conversation with blocparty about insults. he is great, he tells people he doesn't like that he is sending them anthrax for Christmas, I was cracking up.
the trumpet is so clear and simple. there aren't all those undertones. it's great because of it's simplicity. _________________
Hm, I think it was a tie between oboe and FH. My friend plays oboe and she sounds like a kazoo seriously. _________________ www.freewebs.com/tenniswallpapers by myself and x.doublea

yes!!! you must have a wonderful ear to play the horn. it's like the trumpet and other brass instruments in that one hand position has many different notes, only a hell of a lot harder. it has a beautiful tone. I truly believe it is the hardest instrument in an orchestra. I played it for a year back in 5th grade. I was the only player (it is a small school), so I ended up switching to the trumpet the following year where there were more players. _________________
My problem with many people playing the trumpet (and the saxaphone) is that it's just so loud!
I think all instruments are equally as difficult when you get to an advanced level. When one's a beginner, I have a theory that one can play any instrument terribly, but it's just various instruments maximize that terrible tone (oboe, french horn, or even violin/cello/viola). French horn cracks, violin/cello/viola screeches and scratches, and the beginning oboe, well.... _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself

Well, I think playing the French horn at age 5 wasn't the best choice... like, at that age, you don't have the air or mouth support to play the French horn... I absolutely hate it when the French Horn (or any instrument) plays out of tune by the slightest bit. I'm a clarinet player, so I always get these alto saxophone players belting out, and it's just so out of tune, I shiver. _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself

I despise the sax, I almost made fun of people who played it saying it was a deformed trumpet. above all though, I hate the percussion with a passion. they are a mere ornament in 99% of everything they play in, yet act like everything revolves around them.
yes. for the first year or so trumpets have a tendancy to dominate the sound of the orchestra. it is a great instrument though. Haydn's trumpet concerto is wonderful. _________________

I was 12.....
Sorry, I meant at grade 5.... _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself
Percussion is actually quite important, but our percussionists aren't snobbish about it, so it's fine. Like in Danse Bacchenale, the triangle and timpani are very important. Adds a whole new dimension.
