Poly: why wouldn't you want to?

I agree with Plover that the way Poly plays would be pretty irrelevant to the concerns that have been voiced, at least to most people. On some kinds of stuff, sure, but not much when it comes to style and tone.

Let me test the waters first by sending a recording to Joel of his piece. Then I may go public.

+1: me too. I can't wait for my next lesson when my teacher makes a criticism and I say: "Oh yeah? Let's see you play it better." smile

Being able to play well is a "nice-to-have" here.

Having good musical sense, taste, knowledge, and communication skills is the "must-have".

I think plover agrees that I have the sense, taste, and knowledge. What I lack is the communication skills, according to him. grin

What I think is that any potentially positive parts of your posts are overwhelmingly outweighed by the negative aspects.

Here's a tip: if you want people to take you seriously, make sure your sentences make sense before posting them.

I see you went to edit your post and STILL did not correct it.

But we can all take a few seconds to proofread something before posting it.

I'd rather make 10 errors per post than be guilty of the type of posts you regularly make.

Your comment on my post is just another example of your mean spirited, nasty arrogance.

I hope you're still reading these posts despite your earlier post that you wouldn't.

@Kuanpiano,

Nice job, as I know you will continue to work on it!

I know you are. I meant everybody else. laugh The only youngins around here that I know are you, me, Debrucey (where'd he go?), and OSK.


Hey watch it, Joel. I'm quite a few years this side of 40! grin


Me too, but I think he meant people in this thread (at the time of his posting)? Because otherwise there are quite a few, particularly in the Members Recording section (some <18).
By the way, Joel, in spite his profound wisdom Kreisler (who posted in this thread) is <40 too (I think).
