WHO IS SHE

ALONDRA DE LA PARRA

#a warning to anyone out there attracted to women#she looks great in a tux

Have some more photos of her in action, because I love her:

And my all-time favorite:

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Someone needs to make an animated movie about conducting with her as the lead. When she ducked down and hid? I love. I wasn’t in band long but I would have killed to be conducted by her as a chorus student.

you know this fucking tune

They made it into a ringtone because it was old enough to be public domain, and Nokia (I think?) didn’t want to have to pay royalties.

… I like the full version.

are you SHITTING ME. This is one of those posts that makes you question your worldview a little bit, tbh

okay, not quite. not quite. but the truth is better.

the original tune is not this. the original tune is, however, public domain, so they’re not wrong. it’s francisco tárrega’s gran vals – check 0:12.

but THIS, what he’s playing, is the Valse Irritation d’après Nokia, also known as the ringtone waltz, written by Marc-André Hamelin, who is a terrific canadian pianist and who wrote this as a snap reaction to having people’s fucking cellphones go off at concerts.

here’s hamelin talking about it. and playing it himself.

and the instant i first heard the valse irritation, you know what i had to do, immediately, and what at least three other people i know also did?

of course we made it our ringtone, didn’t we. because humans.

holy shit this keeps getting better
