Another Monday has Passed

Right now I am listening to Barcelonazo, the two piano version...I really dislike this piece a lot. It is not very interesting, just a bunch of 8th note modulations. I was getting soooooo frustrated in Musica Nova today...I really wish that Scatterday would rehearse something for once. Today he was like, "People, this is not good...things are not getting better...I know that you all know your parts, so what is the problem??? Come on, lets get things together." And I am thinking, {Perhaps we could rehearse something rather than running through the piece every rehearsal, then things would get better, since then we will have actually worked on them and fixed things.} However, this is not the case...today we ran through sections of Barcelonazo and it sounded bad, and Scatterday was like, "this sounds bad...lets move on..." WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND SAYS THIS?!?!? If something sounds bad, then you rehearse it! AGH!!!! I wanted to slap him in the face. Orchestral rep was a very pleasant experience today. Only Brian, Me, and Lisa Caravan came to our section and Hannah was the only one who came to her section, so we all got lots of attention and got to play a lot over the two hours. We finished up Don Juan...we worked up the whole piece, rather than just the beginning, like last year. And then Brian was like, "What about Beethoven 8?" but she didn't make us all play that. Good. In Phil we ran Tchaik and Shosti...which was surprisingly fun...Especially the 3rd mvt of the Shosti...Love those cello section parts. Me and Brian finished the first season of queer as folk, but he didn't really want to continue with the next four seasons, so I just told him everything that happened. I wonder what we will do now that we don't have queer as folk to watch at meals?
