Sebastiaan Ammerlaan 🇳🇱

I'm adding #Mastodon as a #comment system to all my old #blog posts. A reaction to this Mastodon post will show up as a comment.

This was a short post with a recording of me performing #Brahms 's Ein deutsches Requiem a couple of years ago.

Sebastiaan (Bas) Ammerlaan — bariton · Recording Brahms - Ein deutsches Requiem - Sebastiaan (Bas) Ammerlaan — baritonOne of the last concerts I could give before the current new Covid-19 lockdown was the famous Ein deutsches Requiem by Johannes Brahms, with fellow soloist Elenora Hu, the <a href=https://www.toonkunst-utrecht.nl>Toonkunstkoor Utrecht</a> conducted by Jos Vermunt and the Utrechtsch Studenten Concert as the symphony orchestra. Coincidentally, I played in this orchestra myself, once, and even was part of the board for a year. A big honor!

Cute and speaking to family-level nostalgia perhaps, more than its artful writing, "Amahl" falls short of its defenders' claim as one of the best librettos. "Licorice!"

Sebastian Djupsjöbacka

Hi everyone! I finally came around to write an #introduction post.

I'm Sebastian and I work as an #orchestralibrarian in a #symphony #orchestra. My cultural interests are #music (#classicalmusic, #jazz, #choir #singing), #literature, #history and #art. Other interests are #tech, #gaming, #running, #football (meaning #soccer) and #cycling.

I came to Mastodon in the 2022 wave of new users, but it took me this long to get this post done. Don't really understand why.

Frederic struggling with the medium

I previously wrote about Frederic: Resurrection of Music. I’m glad I did, because I had forgotten that the game is also available on Nintendo Switch, where we can play with touch controls. It makes our life easier. However, since I bought the game on Steam anyway, I decided to install it today and give it a try with the computer keyboard. It was quite the hellish experience! It’s so annoying to play. I read that, instead of using ‘asdf’ for the left hand and ‘wer’ for the right hand, people used ‘hjk’ for the right hand while keeping ‘asdf’ for the left hand. As for me, I hit all the wrong notes, thank you very much. Maybe I also hit all the right notes in the wrong places and the wrong notes in every other place. The fact is, I didn’t get the Musicality result at the end of the level and therefore couldn’t move on to the next one. 

Enter the mouse! Do you think it’s ridiculous to play a rhythm game with a mouse? I agree, but I hit those notes, all right!? I cleared the game on ‘too easy’ and ‘normal’ difficulty. Now I’m working on the ‘hard’ mode. If the Steam Deck has touch screen support, maybe it could be a nice game to add to your library. It’s very fun, if you happen to enjoy Chopin and don’t mind weird remixes. I found them very refreshing, albeit a bit nonsensical. I didn’t know I could use the mouse for musical things. It was almost like experiencing a very hard boss fight using the controller: shaky hands, and a slight discomfort in my right hand. Serves me right. I didn’t pay much attention to the story this time, but there’s a little story between each level, fully voiced. I still enjoy this game, even after all these years.

It’s a bummer that the game left the Apple store for some reason. The developer, Forever Entertainment, is still registered there but the game isn’t available anymore.

The musical instrument mouse was effective for the normal difficulty during Nocturne Es-dur Op. 9 Nr. 2, but not for the hard difficulty, which required some keys to be pressed simultaneously and featured speedy transitions that a mouse simply couldn’t handle. There are limits! Bottom line, playing with a mouse is possible to an extend, especially if you’re just aiming to see this short game through. I could say it was a cozy game if not for the hassle with the controls.

#introduction post: I'm a #contemporaryclassical #composer, premiering works on concert stages since 16 years ago. I'm a #musicwriter mostly for Musicworks magazine (Toronto). I also do indie research on contemporary music+postcoloniality with a published journal article and a forthcoming book chapter.

I'm a #ClassicalMusic #pianist who dabbled into bands. I'm also a #SynthPop #singersongwriter as "Grumpy Kitty Boy." I studied Japanese koto eons ago and have my own instrument.

Let's connect!

Classical Music resurgence with young audiences.
“Instead of trying to force the old world allure of classical into a modern era, it's done the opposite: using streaming, social media and a general dressing down of the dressy atmosphere of symphonies, classical musicians, educators and programmers are focusing on how new classical music can feel, and how modern it can become.”

Excellent. It is my fave and there is so much to enjoy.
