I was a Tyrannochorus [”Rex!”] for Halloween at school today. I printed out the first two pages of the Rex tremendae from Mozart’s Requiem and carried my folder around all day (but I had choir and conducting, so it was not extremely out of place).
Some of my friends said I should have printed out the theme from Jurassic Park and I was like
- that’s not in the public domain, so where’m I going to get it,
- that’s an entire orchestral score, no one’s going to look closely enough and stand there long enough to figure out that’s what it is
- Most Importantly, that doesn’t have a chorus part!!!
