Plus, as it's amazingly important, the instrument I use the most often for me is my voice, as it's the hardest to play and you feel so much more related to every note you sing, compared to pressing a key on the piano..

btw: i love that you like shpongle

yeah i love shpongle - one of my all time favourites, especially their first three albums

i love both piano and guitar for those same reasons, i just wish i could easily switch between thinking on each. guitar is so much more expressive in certain ways, as you said.

i agree with you about singing too - i used to love it and be reasonably good at it, but unfortunately i now have a throat issue that no doctor or specialist has been able to correctly diagnose or treat so far. my throat and neck cartilage are very sore and inflamed in one specific place, all the time.

how long have you played guitar and piano? did you ever have an issues switching between them? maybe i just need to stick at it with guitar while keeping up with piano and eventually it will all click? the other problem is finding enough time in the day to practice everything
