Excited for the new program?
Yeah, first rehearsal.
Man...
How was your weekend by the way?
- Not bad. I went to the beach to... - Ohh...
- chill out a bit. - Man, it sounds nice!
What did you get up to the beach?
Just relax, you know, chill out.
A lovely weekend of...
not practicing?
Ha, yeah, me too.
Yeah... of course.
- Who even practice before? String players, right? - Yeah, you know what-
Pfft! Haha! what a joke!
Yeah.
- I don't even know what we're playing today. - It's the first rehearsal, hahaha!
Welcome back, everyone.
Good to be back.
Let's start today's rehearsal with
Death of Tybalt by Prokofiev.
Death of Tybalt?
14 beats in one down bow!?
What!?
Conductor's currently conducting at
approximately 40 beats per minute.
60 divided by 40 means 1.5 seconds per beat.
So 14 beats is 21 seconds for this down bow!?
Thankfully, I've noticed early.
It's only been 4 beats,
which means there's around 15 seconds of down bow left.
I can make it!
Phew! That was a close one!
Nailed it!
1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3!
(French) 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3.
4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4...
(Chinese) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 5, 7, 7, 8...
(German) 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1...
Guys, come on!
We really need to count in the sect-
Wait, what is this?
Coda?!
What? Do I repeat?
Do I repeat back?
To which repeat do I go, the first one or the second one?
Is this the first?
What does the 3 asterisk sign mean?
What is this? Russian?
Does Eddy know?
Oh, he has no idea.
What about conduct-
The conductor doesn't even care. Tsk!
Oh, the vio-
(One!)
Wow, finally, the violists are useful for once!
Okay, C1... Coda 1. That's it!
Here we go!
OHHHHH...
Oh... Betrayal!
Oh...
The orchestra is not a child's playground, my friend.
It's a battlefield...
