cello charlie concert erin hate jealousy love music orchestra vivaldi

Erin plays the cello in Juilliard's most prestigious orchestra, and she's first chair. She's desperate to make her parents proud, so she practices incessantly and focuses solely on her music.

Then, Erin's orchestra starts playing Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Cellos, her all time favorite piece. She would be thrilled, if it weren't for the fact that her duet partner, Charlie, is a total slacker.

Unlike Erin, Charlie has made it to the top by sheer luck, and god - given talent. 

He parties, she studies.
He drinks, she practices.
He scrapes by, she gives it her all.

One thing's for sure - put these two together, a combination from hell, and everyone is bound to be a thousand miles from comfort.All Rights Reserved

Music brought us Together ♪ by LuxyMonster

"What's your name?" "I'm Twyla Gray." "Percy Foster." It was always Twylish's dream to enter the famous children symphony orchestra in Britain, The Hallowss. Finally, she and 4 others were chosen out of 15000 people to join the orchestra. Thrilled and overjoyed, she went to her first practice. The only problem is making friends. Unluckily, that hot boy Percy from percussions was stationed behind her forever. Percy always thought he belonged in the music life, unlike his parents and his other friends who were constantly playing with their phones and playing stupid computer games. When he first joined The Hallowss, he believed that he was meant to be there. It was his life. Until the cute git Twyla stomped her way into his life, his life had been flipped inside-out, and never the same since. *** Hope you will like this, even though it might not work out, and may end up like my previous works *** *** ((If you know what I'm talking about~)) ***

Astrid Lyraea by LuckyGoatDec6

"And why is it you don't want to work with anyone in the band?" "I don't like anyone." I said simply. "And that is the point of doing this group activity. But now let me ask you two questions. One, Why do you put up with band if you don't like anyone? And Two, Why don't you like anyone else?" Ms. Emma asked me, leaning a bit forward in her seat meaning she expects an answer from me. "I put up with band because I love my grandma and she was always telling me to be a trumpet. She died about a year ago and I just want to honor her memory" I say looking down. "I'm so sorry Jace." Ms. Emma says, and I look up to see an emotion I hate. Empathy. I don't want her sympathy. So I changed the topic and answered the second question. "And I don't like the band because they all like her. The weirdo. She's always happy, always talking with everyone as if they are the most special person in the world, she's happy about playing more music than any of us needs to. She's so weird that it's like she's popular. She's not normal, not right. All I want to say is pair me up with anyone but her. I hate her, Ms. Emma." Ms. Emma just looks at me like I am the weird one. "And who, pray tell, is that Jace?" I was a little shocked she didn't know. Or maybe she did and she wanted to hear me say it. So I said her name just to make her happy. "Astrid." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jace Vaughn hates Astrid. All because she is weird. Or maybe he is jealous because of how "easy" her life seems to be. He's always getting bullied by his supposed loved ones, and his favorite person in the world left him unwillingly. When a band project and a few mean words make Jace and Astrid's fates intertwine, can Jace forget his hate and learn to be friends with a musically nerdy girl? and maybe, just maybe, can he learn to love again?

I, the bestiest friend in the world, drag my dear friend Annie along to a Mumford and Sons concert (that we really aren't supposed to be at) and neither of us expected to win something thuper duper important. This thuper duper important thing led to a thuper duper unnecessary idea. Then it kinda just turned into one big mess, we're in the middle of no where, Annie is only allowed in the storage cupboard and well... Mumford and Sons are part of it. So... what's gonna happen? Please vote, comment, fan whatever you feel is necessary :) I appreciate feedback.

The Swan by JaideHarley

Reminds me of what it feels like when you're really making love to someone." "Uh no. It's nothing like that," I said. "Oh I think it is. Perhaps you've never really had someone make love to you. It's euphoria and relaxation all at once if it's being done right. All those touches," he brushed his fingers against my neck and I shivered.
