You are a quiet and introverted musician. You dislike showing off your talent (for music or magic) but the opportunity of a lifetime arises, and going against your character, you accept. But when a certain grey mare enters the picture, you realize that you've gotten into more than you bargained for.
I've only just started reading but i feel the need to point out that while world building and details are good stuff, there's only that much trivial things like making the bed and doing dishes that people (i) can read without, well loosing interest. Maybe my attention span isn't the longest, but i felt the need to point that out.
i'll continue to read and give my verdict when im done with the chapter.
Edit: i can find no grammar errors or anything like that, then again, i wasn't looking for them.
The one thing that did bother me was this little bit "the melody to “Giggle at the Ghosties,” by Pinkie Pie", while i have nothing against the song, in fact i love it, it still feels out of place to use that particular song. Any classical piano piece would have been better, adding to the serious feeling i kept getting from this fic.
Other then that? i'd say good stuff, i'll keep reading!
I found nothing that bothered me in this chapter, i actually found myself wanting to play around with the Colorchanging spell, The things i'd do with it!
I'm glad you went a little into detail about the repair spell and the fact that you pointed out that it was exhausting, it helped.
good stuff~
Onward!
I found nothing wrong, and to be honest i really liked this chapter, best one so far.
I like this story, i was skeptical at first but now that I've read it, i can say that it's a good, lighthearted, almost calming read.
Am i sounding like a fanboy? because i always glorify things right after i've read them.
all in all, faved, tracked~
i want to see where this goes.
Bonus point for me, episode 18, The show stoppers.
Nailed it.
Wow, thanks for the sudden tidal wave of input after weeks of radio silence! I really hope the rest of the story lives up to your expectations! 
(And I might have to throw in a few more "dearie"s, just for you) :
(Also, fixed the music reference at the beginning. You like?)
For every "dearie" i find in your future chapters im going to nail a fruit to a tree on my yard and send it to you with an angry mail. 
now for my serious reply.
I'll start with why i even decided to read this, i don't like second person all that much and I'm more of the "OMG EPIC ADVENTURE AND MAGIX" type of reader.
But, it was actually the lack of comments that made me want to read it, since i know myself how lame (frustrating) it is to do something and not get any sort of feedback.
So i read it and (sorry) to my surprise, liked it, and now you're stuck with me bothering your every chapter, Deal with it.
Music reference, it's a lot better, i'll give you that, but for further "SRSNESS" i'd suggest actually finding a piano piece (GOOGLE) and just "ponify" it, i always find ponified names add alot of feeling.
there you go.
Also, im serious about the fruits. Stay low on the Dearies and you'll save some fruit.
im serious, fruits will be nailed.
"Prelude in C# Minor Op. 3, No. 2 ", by Sergei Rachmanin"hoof"
that's just an example though, just Google piano pieces, and insert typical Pony name/thingy.
Now it's time for bed, i'll be looking forward to the next chapter :)
And we'll see how much fruit i'll have to sacrifice by then.
God dammit, That Vinyl. So wonderfully annoying!
makes you wonder if you should hug her or punch her. Ha!
The piano piece that was "played" in the beginning was nicely written, i could almost hear it playing in my head, Almost~ 
only real issue right now?
i want more.
i for one liked this chapter and the way you write vinyl, she's different from the "other" vinyls, in a eccentric and annoyingly good way.
and thank god you couldn't fit in any "dearie".. i only have a few apples at home, i was afraid i wouldn't have enough ^^
Keep writing! :D
I have to say, this here is one of the better romance fictions I've seen out there. It's not as popular as mine yet, but I hope to see it in the featured box one day!
There are no real grammar mistakes and if there were any, they evaded my keen eye. Do keep writing, good sir. You have earned my green thumb! ^^
I FOUND ONE, I F***KING FOUND A DEARIE.
i'll Edit this comment in a few minutes.
Edit: i Told you, for every Dearie, i'd nail a fruit to a tree, so here you go, couldn't find any nails, so i had to improvise.
About the actual chapter?
it feels and reads like you're improving, hard to put into words, but the it flowed a lot better, kinda.
Can't find anything to point out either, and you're writing fast, wasn't expecting a chapter for atleast another 2 days.
Good stuff.
Very nice of Octavia. (Of course she'd have, um, nice hoofwriting. And I couldn't think of a way to tweak "penmanship" in a suitably Equestrian manner.)
Conventional wisdom holds that orchestras, once out of sight of the audience, tend to be ridden with anxiety, turmoil, and any number of other ailments that belie their rigidly-organized appearance. I have not researched this myself, but every musician I know swears it's true.
my thoughts are a little "all over the place" now that i finally got to read this, I'm not entierly sure what i think.
But i do know that you mentioned the fact that not every unicorn can use magic all day long, this was the first time i've read that, and i liked it.
Awaiting next chapter~
I want to see Octy rip him to shreds.
I, being musically retarded, have never actually attended an audition myself either. Also, I have no idea what goes on behind the scenes in an orchestra, so my portrayal is most likely going to be horribly incorrect. From here on out, I'm winging it.
Living, as I do, in a town where a conductor was once sacked for what appeared to be excessive devotion to eclecticism -- "You can't play [name of any composer born since 1900] on the same bill with the Nutcracker!" -- I suspect that even the fearsome Lyrica will eventually have to answer to somepony.
Hah! i love verbal sparring, always fun.
Here's to hoping that, how hard it is to talk about the "guy" when it's written in second person, woops ass and Outplays whatever Frederic has done.
That made so little sense that i had to take a break to consider posting it.
Good chapter, forgot to comment on the other one, but it was a great chapter too.
Keep it up!
I encountered it once in my younger days, wondering if indeed it was as dirty as I thought it was. Which, of course, it wasn't, but that was enough to imprint it somewhere in the back of the brain pan, waiting. Trade-off: I can't remember the birthdays of any of my relatives. Apparently there's only so much room back there.
And I think I account for a hefty percentage of the worldwide usage of "desuetude."
This is where things start to get sketchy.
I have no idea how an orchestra is supposed to be run, so we'll see how long I can B.S. my way through this.
Cheers!
“You keep using that word. ‘Fine.’ I don’t think it means what you think it means.”
Thanks for catching that!
Good job, have an awesome Luna.
Only for that first song i got in the chapter before this one i can only say this: i love you i love you i love i love you and this story. And thats coming from a guy who mostly listens to the early works of slipknot (mentally unstable music)
Naa just kidding i listen all kind of stuff, altough metal is my favorite genre. (its so alive)
Well that's intresting i'm having a bit of the same thing, i have a rather large vocabulary if not in a diffrent language and the only birthdays i can renember are my own and the one of my dad (and thats only because that's on halloween)
*Edit* no wait rather large is not the right description, dictionary-like would be the right one.
It sure is cheesy i am estatic about it, in a sarcastic way.
And i finally caught up with the story *cheers*, i wonder how it would be to see the comments i left behind, during the first one i thought: what a nice story, after that impossible piano play i got more whiped up and now i'm thinking: this is the best musical fic i've ever read.
Sooooo yeah you got an extra follower.
Thank you so much for all this sudden feedback! It's really something to get home to find 20+ notifications, and most of them from one person. Anyway, I hope I can continue to live up to expectations. Cheers, my friend!
Yes. They were dating steadily for a few months before Frederic's untimely death. I never came out and said it, but the hints were there.
Now your making sense.
*edit* hold on picture is not loading, damn you anticlimax.
Still not loading, seriously pressed on F5 for like 5 times now.
6 times.
8 times, i'm gonna give up now, could you describe the picture?
*edit* forgot the, how do you call it the thingy next to the dot on the keyboard, called a comma in my country.
Anyway i forgot to add one between now and could.
*guess what another edit*
This comment is just one giant anticlimax, happy times.
That means that i'm laughing my ass off. (was off now with 2 f's or 1 f ?)
English isn't my motherlanguage, i mean my english speech is very good, and so is my vocabulary but i still stumble a bit over random words.
Like a grown man tripping over his own legs.
*edit* this comment is getting long, lets make it longer by saying that its getting even longer as i am typing this.
*edit* i got a good idea how to make this comment longer (or is it post?) i could add more smiles 
there you go.
*edit* i just saw that i placed a comma between could and you on line 5, silly me it should be between now and could, well its all fixed and it gives me an excuse to add a smiley. 
*edit* hmm i'm wondering if i smiles is the correct word to use for smiley in the multiple form, i checked google and it seems i was right all along so this edit is pretty useless. no wait its not useless, i learned something, that makes it useful.
If i would say spam spam spam would you bring in your viking friends and sing spam spam spam?
Just wondering, it was also a way to say spam while spamming but by giving the word spam a meaning i could disguise it as conversation.
Ahh i renember the good o'l days that this comment was just one line long, ohh the memories.
*edit* how long could i make this comment before someone bans me or messages me to shut the hell up?
Lets find out. for justice, for science, for getting an excuse to do all this. This site needs a hoofpump emotion and i'm too lazy to go to google, can YOU do it?
*edit* now that sounds like a challenge, and now i think about it, it is a challenge.
*edit*......... yeah i don't know anything to say right now, i wanted to say something about that the making of this comment so long could be an awesome challenge but now i don't feel like it. Aaaand i just said it. Its still morning here, still need to wake up.
I'm Dutch so the coffey is strong enough to give most people caffine poisoning, so its not the coffey, guess i just need time.
That actually happend here 1 time, it was during a wedding and some french guy was there too and he ordered a normal cup of coffey, after he finished it his hands were trembling due to the caffine overdose. He needed a small glass of vodka to thin it out. (don't ask me why vodka it just happend like that, i'm just the story teller don't judge me.) Anyway that french guy was used to pretty weak coffey, i don't know if that's with everyone in France but it just happend.
Yeah Dutch people and coffey, it all happend during the Voc trade with dutch-india (Now Indonesia) after a while we had a large trade that was mostly coffey, nutmeg, mace and cloves. so those things were very cheap for the residents of the Netherlands. And if a product didn't sold properly for a while you would be waist deep in that product, this happend a few times with coffey so dutch people started to drink it very strong just to use it up. And that's why dutch people have such strong coffey.
*edit* now that was a good way to enlarge this comment.
*edit* i wonder if someone found out about this comment yet. How would they react, oh idea leave your reaction to this comment in the comment page, but now i think about it that's what most people do already sooooo nevermind.
*edit* that picture still didn't load. i am dissapointed in that picture. 
Ohhh wait till Desiratium sees it.
When he sees it all he would be like; wow this is really enthusiastic or he would be like (read the following in a funny voice) nooo what have i gotten myself into.
And his page would be like; notifications, notifications everywhere.
Need to poop, holding it in. OH GOD my belly it hurts, i'm going to explode, touching cloth MUST RESIST MUST WRITE.
Ah crisis averted for now. The brown beast is snoring again. Lets hope it does not get awoken as i travel to my friend who lives in his sisters appartment in a flat on number 556, because his sister is on a holiday and he takes care of her cat.
