Hello !
All the time, when I have a funny pic or video to share, I know where to go : the ITT funny pictures thread.
But everytime I have an awesome musician performance video that pumps me up, I'm always asking myself wether I should post a thread about it or not.
So maybe we can have a thread were we would post videos that probably would interest everyone else unless they diserve a whole thread for some reason (a request about more information about it, or a collection of videos from a particular artist that diserve their own thread, the release of an album). Here the videos would be more of the "random discovery" category. I know laughter is more universal than music because some impressive musician videos would do nothing to someone else, but why not ? I am actually surprised we don't have this here, for we are all musicians of at least one instrument, and are probably all sensitive to some sort of music performance even out of our territory.
The idea here would be quality of quantity, because I feel that most threads where people start posting their favourite songs that match the subject of the thread end being a collection of links no-one has the time to listen to. Here the idea would be only videos of something very interesting and with the potential to interest most of us. It could end in a very interesting thread to consult regularly.
So here I am starting, because yesterday I discovered some TED videos are about music, and I was literally caught by emotion watching them, for talking so well about Music with a big M, and for the awesome and yet simple performances they produce there ! If ever you know any other TED conference video related to music, feel free.
When she plays the marimba in the middle of the video in an organ way, I was completely surprised and was amazed at how beautiful this instrument is.
He is just so communicative, how can you not like music after you see him talk and play ?
