Q: Closure: How is This in 4/4 (Question 58917)

I answered this question, and the question was subsequently closed. I try to flag posts when I see that they are off topic, but I missed this one. The closure caused me to read through this thread, which has been really helpful to me. My understanding now is that this question was closed for pote...

Thank you for a tall list of pieces to backtrack through, @Mithrandir and others less recent!

Avantgarde

RASTRO DE ESTRELAS, J. L. Encinas, official videoclip (HD)

Hm, I might've shared that before. But it's too good anyway

@Avantgarde So nice when I love a performance and only later realize that it was by a show-off who was able to show off the music more than themselves.

humn has been automatically appointed as owner of this room. (What does this mean?)

o_o

@Feeds @humn congrats on your italics! :P

@Feeds what does this mean??/??!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I can edit?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Dream come true. Signed, compulsive editor. I promise to only edit mine unless others ask.

Mithrandir

I don't think you can edit old posts. Can you?

humn

(maybe I'm just dreaming, let's try)

Mithrandir

Anyway, it means that you're responsible for the room. You can kick users from the room. You can schedule events. You can change the feeds.

Not working, pinch me. All I want is to be able to edit my own chat strips.

I don't want to bust others.

Mithrandir

If necessary, you can move messages out of the room, to, say, a trash room.

A: A guide to moderating chat

What tools are available to room owners? Room owners are users that have some elevated permissions in a chatroom. Typically, they will be the first line of defense when it comes to inappropriate content or behavior in a room. Users will look to the room owners to guide the room. The room owners...

"Reading a lot"? - - - - - Listening a lot, and not yet done.

What a treat! Feel like I've relayed here all the worthy, and then some, YouTubes I know, so ... possible repeat ...

Glenn Miller and his Orchestra - A String Of Pearls (1942) HQ

(mailed for that arrangement and cut/spliced/taped it for 4 instruments)

That is so much fun to play!

Such a corny classic, but what a corny classic! (Listening and playing along again and again.)

Possible repeat:

Dixie Dregs, "Free Fall"

Definite repeat:

Maya Plisetskaya - Bolero (choreography by Maurice Béjart)

►

(if you didn't happen to notice, and it took me a few views, that's an excellent rendition of a tedious piece)

(never had to play any of those repetitive bass parts, but have filled in for those lyrical uppers)

(on a good day, they span almost every clef)

How I'd love to choreograph someone who can ply like Maya Plisetskaya! I've seen other works where she twirled like a top but this (the above) one shows her best.

Yes "ply" wasn't a typo. Other typoes aplenty.

(Editor's note, I wish more of those phrases of that spectacular rendition of "Bolero" had been been completed with an upbreath rather than a relief.)

(Ooops around here, "editor's" means "arranger's" or "conductor's")

If nobody else will go harder, here's another repeat ballet, feel free to skipahead again:
