Ryaan,
Check the archives. We've been discussing music for over a decade. Have
a look around before criticising too quickly...

Hi all,
I'm a newcomer to this list, having registered just a few days
ago. I
hate to sound immediately critical, but I've been feeling just
what
Arto summarized rather succinctly. There's been more discussion
about
recording gear than lutes. With the obvious wealth of knowledge
that
people seem to have about recording, and the desire to make clear
recordings, that's wonderful, but I've been wondering when talk of
...
well, music ... actually happened.
I'm a college student, and as a guitar player in high school, I
used to
frequent a message board whose primary purpose was to discuss
guitar
equipment -- effects pedals, amplifiers, electric guitars, etc.
That
time, in hindsight, seems rather wasted; if I'd spent it involving
myself in dialog about actually playing the instrument, I'd feel
much
better about it.
Anyway -- I consider myself to have very little in the way of
knowledge
to contribute, in terms of what Martin just dubbed a "one-way
traffic
from the more to the less expert" but if musical discussion sparks
up,
I'd love to be a part of that.

less
useful for us than for garage band guitar players, but it's a
start.
Best,

Dear All,
I think I understand Arto's frustration. I don't think it's so
much
about "music appreciation" as some discussion of the technical
aspects of music - such as how to interpret the voice-leading in
a
particular passage or whether there really is a hemiola at bars
33-34 and what to do about it. There is also fingering, of
course,
which has been discussed on the list from time-to-time but is
worth
much more, particularly when you consider the musical
implications
of this or that fingering in terms of phrasing, not just
technical
convenience. There's lots of scope for educational activity
here,
and I don't just mean a one-way traffic from the more to the
less
expert.
I would say "I'll start the ball rolling" but it might take me a
few
days to put it together. Can anyone remind me of the easy way
to
create ASCII tab?
All the best,
Martin
