Self-Expression through Music, Friday July 17th

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

"Welcome!" Glinda, like last semester, had handwavily sent out a notice that class would be held outside. "Welcome to Self-Expression through Music. I would like to first apologize for last week- I came down with a stomach bug and decided that we could stand to miss one class this semester." She gestured towards a table. "If you were with me for the last workshop, you know that I usually bring baked goods and lemonade to class. You'll find them over there."

Once everyone had settled in with their snack, Glinda began again. "Now, first things first, introductions. I am Glinda Upland- but please, call me Glinda. Your TAs for this semester are Peyton and Robin." She gestured to each, so their classmates knew who she was talking about. "And as soon as we're done with introductions, we'll discuss the reasons why people listen to music. You!" She pointed to the first student on her right. "Start us off, please."

[OCD up, expect a little SP from Glinda]

"I'll give you an example of what I'm looking for," Glinda said. "Hello! I'm Glinda, and my musical instrument is my voice."

"I'm Robin, and I play the banjo, I sing, and I'm learning the guitar."

"Yo," said Priestly. "I'm Priestly, and, uh, I'm more of a dancing and mosh pit kinda guy, myself."

...how did he end up in this again?

"Liir Thropp-Tigelaar," he said, glancing around, "and I suppose my instrument would be my voice. I can't play anything, certainly."

"I'm Joan Girardi and... I don't have a musical instrument," she said.

"Hi, I'm Penelope, and I play the piano."

"My name is Yakko, and I play organs." Yakko poked himself in the stomach, the large intestine, the small intestine, the appendix, each lung, and finished off with the spleen, all with his mouth open. Each time he poked himself, a musical note echoed from his mouth.

It was Shave and a Haircut, naturally. He was a cartoon, after all.

"So," Glinda said, as soon as the introductions wound down, "why do people listen to music?"

Re: Discussion :: 7/17

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"...because it's enjoyable?"

It was the only thing he could think of. He didn't concern himself with music much.

"I find that when I feel down, singing can help cheer me up."
