Play any instruments? *would you like to? (if you don't)

Stone Birds · 07-11-2010, 01:39 PM

i simply chose to list it because it's a completely different way to play the guitar i don't consider it a completely different instrument, it's just a different odd style for the guitar and i decided to list it since it is something i can do. also speaking of bowed guitar does anyone have some tabs for the bowed guitar riffs yo la tengo does unfortunately i really can't find them

I play Vibes and Marimba, also clarinet.... I would like to learn how to play drums (as in drumset) but doubt thats gonna end up happening.

I play the cello like an amatuer.

I've only taken it for one year and a half at school. I can't play anythign that involves a ton of shifting.
I want to learn how to play a keyboard. I have one, but I suck at teaching myself instruments.

i play piano and have for ten years. i compose my own stuff.
i taught myself how to play guitar (but i dont play too often)
i had a very good friend teach me the basics of playing the drums (acoustic)
i had another good friend teach me a little on how to play the violin (although i really want to learn how to play cello....just dont have enough $$$ to do so right now haha)
and i sing and have been all my life (because i believe the voice is an instrument)

I really do wish I could play the violin, more than any other instrument. It's so beautiful and perfect in every way. Maybe I should start lessons some day.. if only just to start to see how it'll turn out.. Maybe someday.

I can play piano pretty decently, I think. I can play the harmonica too, which isn't that great of an accomplishment, but it's fun to do sometimes.

That's about it. Musically, I'm not too gifted, but I like to dream. =/

I play mostly the tenor saxophone, but have been enticed by a lot of high quality, Chinese instruments on-sale. I am about to order my first soprano saxophone, and am considering a clarinet. Flute is also a possibility.

I play guitar (poorly)
Drums (passably)
French horn (pretty well)

I'd like to play:
Theremin
Keyboard / piano
Bass
Ukulele
Banjo

And fiddle.

I mostly stick to guitar and Piano based instruments, which I'm not very good at at all, but I definitely enjoy myself when I sit down at them. I make it a point to at least try to learn to play just about everything that I get my hands on. I play a handful of instruments poorly, but there are many that I would love to play much better than I do. I would really like to learn to play pedal steel guitar. I've heard nothing but how hard it is to play, but it's such a beautiful instrument.
