Hi Karl,
Thanks, yes, I see what you mean. I could think about that.
What happened to me in the long run was that I switched to Legere.
So my most useful discovery was that the Legere equivalent of a Vandoren Classic #1.5 is a Legere Soprano Saxophone American Cut #2. It took quite some work to figure that out. I've never put that on the BBoard, but I figure it could be useful for some other folks to know about.
I thought overnight about what Mark said, and I think that part of the problem for many of us is that the normal way to "read the room" and then operate in it, may be very different in our particular culture.
I think a lot of the guys here are very senior musicians, often men, often up to 80+ years old. I guess it would be natural for them to consider things in silence a lot of the time, and maybe they know a lot of stuff that doesn't need saying among other musicians.
I'm a stay-at-home Mum and a scientist. On the women's forum that I frequent elsewhere, it's considered kind and helpful to chip in, even when we have nothing to say. It offers encouragement and company to others who most likely are lonely and uncertain.
This is a really different way to read and operate in an online room, and I can see that the two systems could really be very incompatible.
It leave me a little uncertain about how to calibrate for this forum, which is a shame as I know that including women in music is meant to be a good thing.
I wonder if there's any way that we could figure out a common cultural position that would work for lots of different kinds of people?
