I want to be reincarnated as a kid whose parents secure that perfect pitch bag.

I studied musicology. One stormy day one of our professors interrupted our course (like he just ripped open the door) to tell us, that the wind was blowing in F minor.

me, a European, upon hearing “ti” instead of “si”:

So it’s my parents fault that I’m not musically inclined

My college choir director once got the entire choir together in the middle of a retreat just to make us sing the chord he heard from a dying light bulb in the men's room.

Note to self: teach my kid to have perfect pitch

that story about the laptop fan feels like the music school equivalent of when i was on a trip with my art school class and we saw two nearly identical postboxes and started discussing that one of them was a slightly warmer yellow than the other

I just started learning piano and stumbled across this video; I'm currently very confused and scared.

Glad everyone now knows how music school is a lengthy process of going insane that you pay for.

Ohmygod I'm suddenly scared of every musical student I've ever met

“But either way you know it sounds like a perfect fifth.”

I don't need this nonsense, i play the triangle.

"and we only play the white notes because we're raccist like chess"

"We only play the white notes because we're racist like chess" LOL

Before they graduate to retail management.

Fun things to do with perfect pitch:

"Ear training, and its sister nightmare, sight singing, are the two extraordinarily narrow and archaic techniques that all music students have to master before they graduate to retail manager."

My parents wouldn't let me play with matches while watching power rangers and eating macaroni and cheese.

I have perfect pitch but I never really thought about it and now I'm like "hold tf up was it those xylophones I played with as a kid.

As someone who has been learning music for just over 10 years, ever since I was 5, this still confused me. This still might have taught me more than my teachers have in 10 years.
