Fading Ideas

I made a cool composition somewhat like a prelude today.

Great....But for the fact I can't remember how to play it again...

Got to try harder....


Woodwinds and Brass instruments need lots of care...More than the band members are having the time to do.

Brass instruments need to be dried and aerated after playing. Also they need to be cleaned out at least once every 3 months. Some mild soap is plausible and the water musn't be hot.

Woodwinds need to be dried out too, and aerated. Then there's the tedious task of wiping off your sweat which will eat away the instrument's finish and cleaning out the inside of the instrument. There's also making sure the pads that seal the holes air-tight don't soak up and swell, affecting your playing.

No mystery why our instruments rot.
