IrisKitty2 Right now in private lessons I'm working on Concerto in D Minor (transcribed form Concerto in A Minor, Op.3 No.6 for violin) 3rd Movment by Vivaldi. In orchstra we are playing Drifen and Pirates of the Caribbean. Ooh I've played that concerto. It's good, Vivaldi is good to play. I'm playing Some concerto by Bach I've forgotten the name of and Oberek by some Polish composer. In orchestra we're playing the music from carmen and the phantom of the opera.

I just found the piano and violin music for "B.T." from .hack//SIGN on animescores.com. Yay! My roommate plays the piano, and the violin part is low enough that I could transcribe it into viola without much difficulty at all. This is gonna be sweet.

I'm working out a piece for my band (Hell Hath No Fury), to go with this really slow song. It's coming along alright- lots of Beethoven influence, I fear.
That and My Immortal. It's interesting trying to figure it out, I almost have it.

Master-Basser (Don't make fun of me xp )
I have a broken pair of headphones that only play the left side, which means when playing my Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue CD, every thing is quieted except for the violin and drums. I'm trying to learn Sean Mackin's parts for the violin, but it takes time. I know the composer for the some of the violin parts in Yellowcard. He is a cello players uncle in my orchstra. XD

oooooook, here's the list:
School Orchestra: Haydn's London Symphony, Jamboree by someone and a bunch of other generic fiddle junk. Nothing really noteworthy.
Chamber Group: Choreography by Norman Del... something, Wedding Day at Troldhaugen by Edvard Grieg, Tchaikovsky's Serenade for string orchestra, Edward Elgar's Nimrod (amazing!), Edward Elgar's serenade for string orchestra (two serenades!), and that's it.
Myself: I just performed Corelli's La Folia variations at my school concerto concert (the Lichtenberg cadenza edition). My teacher is having me learn Deberiot's 9th concerto now, as well as some random Telemann Fantasias. For fun I'm learning the fugue from Bach's unaccompanied violin sonata #1 in G minor, the gavotte and rondo from Bach's 6th unaccompanied violin sonata in E major, a canzonetta by A. d' Ambrosia, and the cadenza to Brahm's violin concerto, opus 77.
On top of that all, I have GTCYS music that I'm working on which is the same stuff mentioned by Albino Red:
Wagner's The Mastersingers from Nuremburg, a Bach-Stokowsky Passacaglia and Fugue in c minor, the finalie from Sibelius's second symphony, and Tchaikovsky's cossack dances.

In orchstra we are playing Drifen and Pirates of the Caribbean. We played Drifen.. one of my least favorite pieces I think. In a challenge, I became the concertmaster at my school by playing in the very high part the first violins have to play near the end. I impressed myself.

Albino Red Right now I'm polishing up the entirety of Vivaldi's Spring concerto. As for what I'm learning, that would be Vitali's Chaconne in...BLAST! I can't remember for the life of me...OHOHOH! g minor. ninja In my orchestra (school orchestra) we're working up this cool modern thing called 'Legend' and this other thing called 'Modus a 4'. (notice how I call them things as my sucky orchestra is so unbelievibly --get this-- sucky that what we "play" could not really be called "music" as it sounds more like noise interpreted from shreds of paper. We need to learn a new piece by April...and yet our instructor has not introduced one to us (we need three pieces for the Heritage Festival competition in Chicago). In my REAL orchestra (GTCYS) we're working up pieces by Sibelius, Tch..Peter Il...Pieter Il...that one 'Nutracker' guy ( sweatdrop ), Bach and Wagner. Yeah, so... I have made another rare appearance (and by rare I mean in comparison to the majority of Gaia's users) which is weekly. Good news, I will be moving back to my original place of residence soon which means I will have internet every single day. Not sure if the overbearing maternal shadow will allow me on Gaia more than once a week, however. More updates as they come. *misses Gaia and the fuzzy friendly friendliness associated with it (most of the time)* we played Legend one year.. that is a freaking awesome piece, however, I don't like teh slow part, or the end. But the theme really rocks.

CLASS: Incantations by Richard Meyer.. wonderful piece. very enchanting Sinfonia in D by johann Stamitz.. not so wonderful, but I may be judging the piece according to how my group can play it, which is not well. But it isn't a bad song. maybe the arrangement is bad. QUARTET: Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera. fun. currently I'm not working on anything by myself, and I am ashamed to say that I really don't have much more to work on. I do continue to work on playing by ear and I am trying to keep from getting rusty on the entrance of the queen of sheba and dvorak's symphony 9 the first movement.

In our small group we play fiddle pieces (jigs, reels) from the advanced level from my violin teacher's repetoir, as well as her sisters. unfortunatly, i'm the only one in our group taking private classical & and fiddle classes, so most solos besides my own are made up of fiddle things. though on my own with my teacher and larger group, we're starting concerto no. 2 by seitz, and later on this year i'm playing the 2nd violin for concerto of two violins by Bach. biggrin biggrin i'm really excited...!!

I'm doing Music of the Night with my quartet at a ball that my friend is having for her 16th birthday! It's a beautiful song, but a pain to arrange because it's so simple. (I arranged it from my friend's music; she plays the harp) It's nice, but I don't want to add to much harmy or counter melody becaust that would detract from the simplicity. sad

I'm playing Bach cello suite III Prelude. It sounds better on cello than viola though.

Well, we just had our Spring Concert. The songs we played were:
Ridin the Rails
Engines of Resistance
Pachbel's Canon
James Bong Theme Song
De Blues
The 8th and 9th graders also played some songs on their own.
I'd have to say that I'm still working on Pachbel's Canon. There is a part with a few measures of slurs that jump from string to string that I haven't quite mastered yet. sad
