For the symphony asks:

20. Describe in detail how a particular symphony makes you feel and have us guess the symphony.

23. Symphony that best utilizes the celesta?

Bonus silly one for 23: Wagner Tuba? (There's only one I can think that uses it haha)

:)))

hiii. sits down quietly. it DID take me this long to think of something for question 20 thank u for asking. blinks cutely

thanks for asking and also for waiting a billion years i did not forget about uuuuuuuu

20. Describe in detail how a particular symphony makes you feel and have us guess the symphony.

ok ok here's what i came up with. this symphony is like if a symphony were a bug. it's the piece that comes to mind when i think of the phrase creepy crawly. it's also like if an ice cream sundae were a symphony. it combines the whipped smooth soaring textures of horn and cello with sprinkles of crinkly and unusual textures on top that you can crunch between your teeth. it's the soundtrack of you getting pulled down to hell by little tiny sprites that are also laughing the whole time. it's the soundtrack of a romance between you and your sleep paralysis demon. it's like a puzzle, something you have to work at with your tongue before it will crack open. and then bite you.

23. Symphony that best utilizes the celesta?

imo it fits so well into mahler 8. it adds an extra layer of other-worldliness that makes the symphony that much better....

and hehe WAGNER TUBA BLAST!!!!
