Musical instruments, music forum...yeah.

So, do you play any? As far as for a band, no. I have tried to learn to play the lap harp (Smaller version of a harp, sits on your lap, duh), but to no success. I can play the harmonica, though every now and then it goes "FFFZZZ!" :roll:

I recently found an old wooden flute in the spare room. I'm trying to play it, but it sounds like a dying cow...

I'd like to have a mixer...

Wouldn't posting there be necromancy TCM?

I play the piano. Or I thought I did, until I heard TonberryKing play.

Slight inconvenient, it isn't exactly... portable. But still, I like it.

EDIT: Sorry then... my mistake.

Necromancy is only bad if your post is stupid and does nothing or little to contribute to the discussion. Any relevant posts in old threads are fine.

I play guitar. I haven't been playing for very long, but I've gotten a lot better in a short amount of time.

I play a <b>TUBA</b> 8):lol: I'm first chair in my 8th grade band I'm actually pretty good at it. Bumbumbumbumbumbumbum

I play the alto saxophone.(immidiate solo which I can recognise by heart) I'm the Senior in my band.(Or the Best)

I used to play the drums, but my mother stopped paying for lessons because I didn't practise enough.

I didn't have a drum kit to begin with, and playing on my knees didn't really encourage me to continue with practise.

Straaaaaaangeeeeellllyyyyyy enough.. Haha.

It's a pity. I'd have been pretty good by now had I kept it up.
I'd like to learn the guitar, but I have no patience for things like that.

o_<

guatar and drums

im one of 3 lead trumpets for the Dynamic Dynamo Pep Band for the Houston Dynamo. its a bunch of college guys and me, the lone recent HS grad. i play marching percussion and keyboard on the side. oh, and im a music major. you can quiz me on keys and all that fun stuff.

I play bassoon(3 years), violin(7years), piano(2years) and take voice lessons(3 years)

I play the drums [snare + drumset] and I'm pretty decent. I am in an amateur rock band too ^_^

Classical guitar for 2 years. Grade 1 with Guildhall School of Music which I passed with High Honours. Practicing for Grade 2 in Easter.

SP

P.S I'm really quite good at singing *thinks about vocal lessons*

P.P.S Probaly going to learn electric or acoustic in a few years time

I play: Violin for eight years ( I can still remember my mom applauding as I played "twinkle twinkle little star five times perfect )
Ukelele, this is my second year.
And I also play air guitar. Yah. Rock on.

I've recently just started the keyboard as my idol is Matthew Bellamy, an extrodinary piano/Keyboard player whos never had any lessons. He plays for the band 'Muse'. <s>The Best Band Ever.</s>

So yeah, I want to be able to play some Muse songs and other... stuff.

I play the piano, saxaphone, guitar, and clarinet. by the way, before you laugh (those of you who do) there are no gender-specific instruments. ask me why.

I got to Grade 1 on the Keyboard and then she started teaching me scales. I told her where she could shove her lessons and taught myself.

My friend says I am more than capable of passing a Grade Five test, but that means doing scales and I really can see no point in them. I mostly make my own songs (No, they do not consist of a simple melody with a single note playing bass) which are mostly the riffs and most famous part of a classical song repeated over and over with added parts and a Techno-themed backtrack.

i play the.....TRUMPET!!!!!! YAY ME!!!!

That's a somewhat odd instrument. Is it difficult?

First off, it is not odd!

Second it is prttey difficult especially if you have braces!

Sorry, it's just that I've never met anyone who plays the trumpet...

And yes, braces are highly annoying. Try playing the flute with them.(I tried, failed and gave up...)

I know exactly what you mean! I can never remember a melody, I can remember the idea of the notes and their order, but I just can't figure each one's duration out. It is highly infuriating, and, since it takes me ages to write it on staves, I just don't bother and sing to myself the tune in an effort towards memorising it.
