Music Rant #2

Somedays I wish that professors would start respecting their students and their time. Today in orchestra the conductor worked for about 15 minutes on solo passages in the orchestra while the rest of the sections sat and waited. It was like pulling teeth for the orchestra to stay quite while they weren't being worked with. I wish that she would have either taken all of the soloists in the orchestra and told them work on your solo with your studio professor, or tell the rest of the orchestra to take a break for 15 minutes and keep the soloists for the time.
