*hums endless broken chords and trills*
Feb. 23rd, 2010 07:15 pmDear Bach,
I know you’re a musical legend and all, but I really wish you had thought just a little about us mere mortal musicians when you were writing your works for solo violin. They are beautiful, no doubt about that, and I am not questioning your purpose or structure – but I must say, my hands don’t quite like some of the stretches and such involved.
As for you Kreutzer, the only word I can think of to describe most of your Etudes is ‘sadistic’. I am in pain, and it’s your fault.
Sorry to be such an ungrateful violinist,
Lauren
