ok this is really sad but until i read here i thought conductors of orchesters did tell the musicians what notes to play? what do they really do?
A childhood belief about songs

others believed things like this
- I thought Rock and Roll were 2 musicians, with one who rocked and one who rolled.Anon
- I thought Scott Joplin and Janis Joplin were related. Two musicians with the same last name - it made sense!— Rita
- When I was little, I was convinced that musicians lived inside the radio...little versions of them, that is!— pcmkrfn
- I thought god looked like the face on the play-doh can!— Jonathan Franz
- i thought grown ups read in a different language!Anon
- My parents used to have an old radio. I thought it could only play old songs, like from when they were young.— kathy
