Annoyed though you are that my ideas have won the day, you've got to perform my stuff. As I've written it, and accepting my choice of soloist. Yes, I cost the NZSO millions with my radical stance to defund it. Yes, I'm planning to force NZ Opera to admit their racism. Yes, but I'm also offering the NZSM and NZSO a huge sum to build a conservatory that works and is hip and current (incl. traditional and commercial degree pathways). - Why? Because I'm the closest thing NZ classical has to a superstar. Salina's rich, but my music is preferred, even in the highest circles. Movement 1 of the preludes is better than Rainphase. You know it, I know it, and that's why your dicks are hard. I note Dr. Fisher hasn't written a violin concerto or premiered it... You'd always choose Amalia over her as a superior soloist. Joel has the chops, and being laconic doesn't mean he's a jock. His background is in metal and computer programming. - I'm popular because I try to include things, while you lot are all about excluding things. If you ever want to hear me sing or play live, privileged dorks, then you'll apologise about your bigoted comments regarding my gender identity and my private life, and all those who tried to "improve" me will formally apologise for breaching my copyrights and making me suicidal.
