1. "...studying music from a piano 'redyction' is unthinkable and sub profeasional..."
2. "As a profeasional singer, I spend the vast majority of my day scrutinizing the practice and work habits of my colleagues. This includes their unwillingness to communicate with the dead composers via a medium, it's an asinine assumption that singers should watch the conductor, and reading the notes on the page."
3. "A true profeasional singer splits her waking hours as follows: 30% towards score study, 20% towards weight-lifting to get in shape for carrying full scores, and 50% towards telling people how professional she is for studying her score so much. Too bad you keep using those sub profeasional piano redyctions and putting your time towards plebeian things like learning your music quickly and getting gigs."
