Re: Detroit
What the . . . .
Sounds like a good old Amish shunning, not facing the audience?
Talk about a socialogical experiment, does any other Orchestra do this?
Very interested in the outcome of these "Changes".
Thanks for posting this Klaus!
So the Bassoon's have a lot of solo's,
and Tuba Players now are better, [Facile?]
so let's give them the solo.

Why do I feel like I'm reading a satire story from "The Onion"

Re: Detroit
September 23rd must be the new April 1st.
I mean really, taking a solo away from a basson and giving it to the tuba! That must be a joke.

If these things are all true, I'm actually kind of interested in seeing how these turn out. Doesn't hurt to mess around with the canon every once in awhile...

Re: Detroit
Slatkin warned the orchestra a while ago that he was going to post this. It's meant as a joke.

Re: Detroit
This is very funny. It's good to see someone trying to lighten things up in Detroit. The city needs it.
