I've actually done about 40 minutes of revision just now for my music exam tomorrow.
It's so boring though because it was all about Baroque and Handel. I mean I love classical music but I can't get into Baroque, I love the art of that period, but the music is just so.. Blah. This being said I do adore the harpsichord.
I did some note taking and now my hand hurts and my brain can't coordinate any of it so I'm just going to read about Schoenberg and Reich instead because serialism and minimalism are beautiful to me.
I really wish I had more time to revise for my music exam because I really feel like I could potentially do well in it. Just not at the moment. I mean I've done well enough, if what they say is true (they being the music department) I basically got full marks for my coursework therefore I pretty much have a C just going into the exam. I'm not going to have to do a lot to better that. I mean anything above a pass is good enough for me because it means should I ever need to justify my grade for it I can say that I received full marks on my coursework but the theory side of it just wasn't me, I'm more of a performer.
It's so sad though because I do genuinely find parts of the music we learn about interesting. But then again I hate the academic language and what not which goes with it so bleugh, scrap that.
