Have I mentioned...
May. 6th, 2004 04:28 am... that I'm just dreadful at music theory?
Really, it's my least strongest musical area.
I can't learn to sight-read music (though I've tried, believe me), I can't absorb seventh-chord inversion notation, and if you ask me about anything more complicated than pointing out what sections start where in A B A Sonata form, my head begins to implode.
Seriously.
It's a darn good thing I can pick things up so readily by ear, or I'd be one screwed chickie in this class.
*sigh* Okay, now that I've vented, I can go back to this mind-numbingly long final (which, I discovered, is only 16 pages of analysis, and not the 25 I had previously believed. Thank Heaven for small favors.)
