Erm.. Let's see - recently it was my 11th year of piano (mostly classical, but I do some of my own improvisation and composition)... 6 years on violin... When in elementary, I tried some instruments but didn't enjoy them - so that's it =]. I have juries and recitals coming up.. fun fun!

[edit]
I'll add two classical pieces for yee to listen to (they're both new, from a recital I played recently)

Black Key Etude by Chopin - [url]http://www.total3d.com/etude.mp3[/url]

Shcerzo by Muczynski - [url]http://www.total3d.com/scherzo.mp3[/url]

I used to played regular clarinet (b flat), then I switched to Bass Clarinet. I hate it! It's just...nasty! But when we have moving parts and *almost* solos....it's cool! Especially since there are only 2, including me, and she never plays right or loud. So it's all me! ahahahaha! *actually, I'm a rather shy person, but I like to play out, when I know I'm not lost* :laugh:

since i am the musically inclined person that i am. (did that make any sense?) i play a variety of instrumentsbut now i dont have much time for all of them i made it as drum major for my school marching band. my first instrument and my love is the saxophne, all of them soprano, alto, tenor, bari, contrabass, i like the whole jazz thing. ilove them all, i also play trumpet for a mariachi group, and viola/ violin again for the mariachi's, i have played trombone and baritone in drastic measures. i picked up clarinet easily and flute. ugghhhh....flute....shhh dont tell anyone. i play keyboard and bass. i like to play with mixers and audio systems and equipment. i love it. but i dont get all the time to do all the practicing i need.

I've played the piano since I was 5 - a long time now! - and I also play the clarinet, alto and tenor sax in a little jazz band, I'm learning the acoustic guitar and when I'm not feeling too shy - usually after a couple of drinks :D - I will get up and sing too.

[B]I play Bb clarinet for Milwaukee High School of the Arts! That, my friends, is cool.

I'm also trying to teach myself the trumpet, but the absence of reeds bothers me... [/B][/quote][FONT=century gothic]Hey, you do? That [i]is[/i] cool, heh. I dint know you lived in Milwaukee area, though...double cool, or something.... -_-;

heh, yeah, me no like brass instruments. I'm used to using reeds. Although oboe or bassoon would be AWESOME to play....

Gee-enki Dama, my music director would kill to have you in our band. ;)

[color=deeppink]Well, I played the trumpet for three years which I was first chair (out of 30 I think) until I got my braces the next year. Then I sucked and I could no longer play. I quit after 8th grade.

I've played the piano for a while, I'm not very serious about it, but I can read music just fine, and that's great when it comes to singing and such :)[/color]

so when you say second flute do you mean second chair flute or second flute part? [/B][/QUOTE]

I mean second chair,only cause the first chair girl is the teachers favorite:mad: He calls on her for everything!:mad: I was originally 5th chair for some reason,but then we had another try out and I moved up to second:angel:

I gave up playing the flute about 3 years ago cause I had breathing problems and couldnt blow down it well enough (chest tightened and lost my breath all the time). I only had lessons at school for about 6-7 months anyway.


I gave up lead guitar in about Jan 2001. I'd taught myself a few chords and could play the intros to a few songs, except 'the cranberries - zombie' I learnt all of that. I kept neglecting to practise though, so I took up lessons for about 4-5months but for almost all of that time we were taught about famous guitarests and how 'good music' was made..not how to play, so I gave them up. I decided guitar needed too much dedication for what I could give it..so I decided to take up bass. It's easier and when (I plan to) go back to try guitar again I will have background experiance.

At the moment:
I play bass. I'm teaching myself by learning the tab for my favourite songs but I have a few friends who can play that help me sometimes if I need them. I've had my bass for almost a year but Im only just really practising properly because I have a slight problem with dedication of that kind. Im sort of in a band and sort of just do it for the sake of doing it. Im playing things like 'bush - everything zen' 'bush - comedown' 'red hot chili peppers - suck my kiss' '3 doors down - loser' and 'incubus - drive' at the moment. Nothing too hard because I still dont have much patince at the moment.

I play the piccolo. No, really, I do! (no offence, Piccolo) In my school band (that's where I play it) we have tests all the time, and I'm proud to say that I'm 1st chair.:D My band teachers are:devil: /:butthead: but, I put up with them.
