What’s everyone’s feelings on playing technique fatigue? Is it a thing? Should a series of staccato and marcato symbols be replace with β€œsempre ben marc. e stacc.” ? What happens when the articulation changes and its tenuto or not marcato? Is it more confusing without the symbols?

Haha this is very true - I have triplet metric mods elsewhere where I put a bracketed tempo and wanted to keep it the same throughout but was worried that I was being over the top πŸ˜‚

Conductor question - if you have a score which goes to half tempo or double tempo and uses crotchet = quaver or vice versa - do you like to see a cautionary metronome marking with it?

One of the hardest things about being an unrepresented artist is how often people don’t respond to emails. Like that sh*t is exhausting !

Absolutely no shade to the Southbank Centre… but would you class Angela Merkel as the β€œfreshest new voice”?πŸ˜‚
