A friend of mine who has perfect pitch, and had trouble transposing because of it, learned all seven clefs, and now just imagines the appropriate one (with sharps and flats to fit) so she can read at pitch. | |

| Aug 31, 2018 at 21:30 | comment | added | Richard | @coconochao The piece is called "The Elements." He's labeling the motives for each element. Way ahead of his time, right? | |
| Aug 31, 2018 at 21:28 | comment | added | coconochao | Out of curiosity, what do the inscriptions "L'air", "L'eau", and "La Terre" mean? I mean, in french they mean, "the air", "the water", and "the earth", but what do they mean in the piece's context? | |
