Re: A conductor's perspective

I haven't asked where the music library is yet, I thought it was in our main library, but I found that to be wrong. I have asked about playing repertoire and he gives me the same line about how my fundamentals need to be better and all that jazz. I know that about my fundamentals, and they have gotten better nearly 10 fold since the beginning of fall semester. I am not going to neglect work on them just because I have repertoire to practice as well. I just don't see what the point of a 30-45 minute lesson on buzzing helps for a second week in a row. (I was sick the week before and didn't get nearly enough practice on the new exercise he added the previous lesson.)
