It's the dubstep remix.
That looks easy enough even for me to play it
20 years after getting my music degree, I still have this nightmare sometimes.
Why not use a multimeasure rest?
because you need to actively think about and suffer through every single measure as punishment for you mistakes
I shall then aggressively play each bar as 24 triplet 16th note rests.
I never forgot my tuba!...
So I got to spend my time looking at the empty spot where my mouth piece would be if i hadn't forgotten it at home.
Once, I forgot my clarinet and had to march an entire televised state football game with my empty hands at attention in front of my face like a fool 🙃
POV: You are a young John Cage.
Joe: Ok Q, youre playing a trumpet in this high school band.
Q: ...idk how to play the trumpet. Plus I'm gonna look like a really weird old guy in a group of kids.
Sal: Yeah, that's the point!
Q exits, Murray unplugs the mic
Murr: What Q doesn't know is that there is no band, he's gotta go on stage and do a solo in front of the whole audience.
Joe: Also, his trumpet case is empty.
all laughing
You gotta tap your foot to the beat, and that's it
