Professional Orchestra?

Perhaps we should send some people back to primary school to teach them how to count...It's so embarrassing how you can call yourself a professionally trained musician like that. Or not even bothering to check on intonation when the unison lines are OUT OF TUNE. Esp. the winds in general. I simply didn't know what to say when friends told me that the viola and clarinet were grossly out of tune. (......)

I think the tubist has too much nutrition liao lar. He's almost always a semitone sharp! Sure get a loose jaw in no time if I have to keep flattening and sharpening to match the tubist/clarinetist. Sorry, my tubist friend, think solo career not feasible for your instrument wor. So, I guess you're stuck in orchestras leh. Bad luck.

Hmmm...many musicians barely bothered doing bits of sectionals. Something which would take up only a few mins of your bitching time...?
