There will be profanities in this post.

Note the clever use of foreshadowing in the post title. I'm a nice guy. Well, that's stretching it a bit but it's irrelevant. The point is that I loathe whoever posted this thing.
As a classically trained musician, my first instinct was to hate this, but I found myself wanting to listen to it. So, I'm going to transcribe it for the horn and TURN THIS MOTHER OUT.

It's in a god awful beast of a key. It's in B, which means it has 5 sharps. Looks a little like this:
  The "good" news is the horn is tuned to F (we'll get into the differences in later posts) so it essentially adds another (profanities) sharp. See. I told you so.
 Yeah. I know right.
So since we're really smack talking some, I guess I'll continue. I want to get really good again, and do drive by hornings on people. I'm serious. Just walk into some Bed Bath and Beyond (tm) and start blasting Wagner (pronounced with a V)

That would be pretty epic. So I have work to do. I hope you guys enjoy the music.
Peace.

  1. I know what you're all thinking. Me too. The music seems much more epic than what is happening onstage.
    Wagner- 1
    Choreography- 0

  12. As far as I know, this is called "Hojotoho! Hojotoho!", The Ride of the Valkyries is... maybe a nickname?
