 Re: Intonation -- What Constitues Being In Tune?

Chris, I wish this was Facebook and I could 'like' your comment. :P

I play with an orchestra at the moment whose committee wants the orchestra to tend more towards the 'professional amateur' ideal, which is completely at odds with the way the orchestra behaves (and has always behaved). The committee is also obsessed with our current conductor, the latest name in town, but I personally think he is lacking pedagogically for an orchestra of this (relatively low) level (he quite often engages in the tuning 'fixes' you describe, Susan).

So the committee wants the orchestra to be a certain way, but are stuck on this one conductor who is the least likely to get them there. The sub conductors we've had over the last year all have the ability to get us where they want...but they don't like any of those.

Give me strength!

(FWIW the only reason I am still there is because they own the cor I have ATM.)
