To my friend @mipiano I gift a metronome. Not any metronome, but a unique antique metronome that will match her style. Like this one maybe:
I know that you have no need, and for your students an electrical clicker is far more accurate and easy. But just for the beauty of it, to add a tiny complement to your beautiful music.
I was fascinated by the metronome my cousin had when she started playing piano. I was perhaps 6 and the very idea that time could be clicked just amazed me.
Merry Christmas.
Do I look so old that this antique metronome matches me?? 😱
Just kidding 😊, nice gift, thanks @bigtom13
In general, students don't like metronome clicking 🤦🏻♀️
Not in the least. I wanted a metronome that was out of the ordinary enough to compare to your playing.
I didn't like the thump on the head from my band director, either. But it was the price for screwing up.
Playing with a metronome is difficult. I remember hating that clicking not I'm used to it, but it is a big annoyance when you begin.
This looks awesome!
