Classical

I know the rule for transposing bassoon to baritone saxophone is supposed to be subtract 3 flats and add 3 sharps but i still don't understand it. what if the bassoon part doesn't have any flats...do i just have 3 sharps?

or what if it has 2 flats...do i have 1 sharp or no sharp? AHH this is so confusing. Any help in detail would be greatly appreciated.

by the way i'm going from bass clef to treble clef if your wondering.

Have a bad opinion on Canon in D major. The reason people go on about it is because not many other pieces sound better. I don't care if it's simple and there are harder pieces to play, those pieces do not sound better and you know it.
It's about the music, not how fast a piece requires you to move your hands.

K, I just bought a full size piano, and it's old, I know it's not in tune. (please don't tell me to tune it, I'm going to get it tuned soon)

I am learning from scratch, and me and my father haven't talked about music lessons yet (yes, I'm fourteen :p) and I don't know how to read sheet music.

I want to learn some songs by ear, but apparently I should know where the key of C is first, but I have no idea how to locate it on anything but a keyboard. In fact, I don't know how to find it at all.

Can anyone give me tips on learning by ear, and how to find the key of C?

I am trying to play:
To Zanarkand & Morning Glow from FFX.

It was on a Macy's commercial advertising Estee Lauder perfume and had a little girl and bride. It was a classical sounding song and is one of the typical wedding songs. Does any know what it is called?

In the "Liebestod" from Wagner's "Tristan", Isolde sings of the wonderful aromas, smells she is experiencing; and asks(if I recall correctly)if no one else smells them?

How many instances in any kind of classical music, can you recall where smells, aromas, odors, or anything relating to that most often neglected of our five senses, can you recall?

In operas, symphonies, tone poems, whatever.

Five(5)? Or perhaps as many as (10)?

So for there to be no mis-understanding, what I am requesting are those composers and the plays for which they wrote incidental music to, after the plays were premiered; and whose author did not commision the composer.

Example: Mendelssohn's incidental music for Shakespeare's "A Mid-Summer Night's Dream".

And sorry, but please don't use it for one of your listings.
Thanks,
and have fun,

Long ,long ago I was taken to a performance in Yorkshire that had a brass band and choir. It was brilliant. I'd love to have a recording of something similar.

What do you think of my voice? I am 19 years old, I never have no vocal training. Do you think I have enough talent to be real singer? I need many opinions to determine whether or not to take seriously tenor singing as my career. Please give me comment. Thank you very much! PS: Please do listen to the video first then put any comment. the video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XM3vywcp3s8 Thanks!

There is a short 3-minute piano solo that I'd like to reproduce on my piano. I am not a musician, and I am wondering if there is a program to give the notes or something, so that I can replay it on my piano?

Thanks!

I just listened to the full thing and I was blown away. It was like someone molded Stravinsky and Beethoven (two of my favorite composers). I have heard Symphony of the Psalms loved it, his three ballets and his Violin Concerto and I liked all of them, but this was just as good if not better than that. It was simply amazing. Anyone else have thoughts on his Symphony in C?

What is it about her that people like?
I don't think she can sing as she has a weird sound to her voice that sounds like she's choking on her tonsills,she screaches and I don't think she sings with any emotion.
Compared with Hayley Westenra,who has an angelic heavenly voice...I really don't think her voice is any good.
Plus everyone thinks she is pretty but I think she looks like a pig with cross eyes.
Can someone please explain what I'm missing here?

I think it was a South American composer who threw open his window and drew the outline of the mountain ridge outside and then composed music following the line of the mountain. Any ideas?

I was just curious as to how You fell about this subject.
Several of My favorite Rock artists are very Classically influenced I.E.
Deep Purple
Rainbow
Yngwie Malmsteen
ELP
I wonder what Classical listeners and fans think of the influence of Classical upon Rock?

Case in Point:
Emerson Lake & Powell's Version of
"Mars The bringer Of War"
