Count it off with this waltz-tempered Unisex Jersey T-Shirt featuring the "My Patience is in 3/4 time" design. The soft, lightweight fabric keeps perfect time through practice rooms, lessons, rehearsals, music camps, or simply a casual day out. This is for the certified three-beats-only musician whose tolerance is graceful, elegant, and extremely brief. One, two, three, and that's all you get before the downbeat comes back around and you start over with a fresh sigh. It's not that you're impatient; it's that you're metrically precise. A waltz is a beautiful thing. So is knowing exactly when you've reached the end of the bar. Great for gifting during holidays, birthdays, recitals, or the end of a long teaching week, this tee resonates with musicians, music teachers, dance accompanists, and anyone who appreciates both time-signature humor and comfort in their everyday wear.

I teach group violin classes and this shirt made the parents laugh out loud. Soft cotton, nice drape, and the print is sharp.

Got this for my mother, a piano teacher of forty years. She wore it to her next studio recital and every student got the joke.

Fits true to size and the fabric is really comfortable. My conductor pointed at it during rehearsal and just nodded.

Clever, comfy, and holds up well in the wash. I've worn it to three rehearsals and it still looks brand new.

Funny design but fabric felt thin and color faded a bit after washing. Still okay to wear.
