I would like to learn to play the sitar because it would be a good excuse to buy a sitar.

Not just a good excuse but the best excuse.

Riberry 01-08-2018 10:18 PM

of course violin. This one is my first proority.

Dhwani 01-17-2018 11:11 PM

I think drums.

jszclar 02-08-2018 09:32 PM

1. Saxophone
2. Trumpet
3. Cello

SmokeAndMirrors 02-14-2018 07:23 PM

Probably guitar next. For fundamental purposes of songwriting. I think it'll help me learn chord structures better. I can do a little guitar work, just not enough to say that I play guitar, at least not by my own standards. Same as with piano/keys.

uncle salty 02-15-2018 12:14 PM

I've always though the harmonica was pretty cool.

I've tried, but I just don't have the lungs for it. Gassed in less than a minute.

maxwell93 03-11-2021 12:58 PM

1. Bagpipes
2. Clarinet
3. Sitar
4. Tabla
5. Voice

(already playing the piano and some Cuban drums)

Meticus 03-16-2021 01:36 AM

I'm already trying to learn the bagpipes and a little guitar and flute stuff.

If I had the time and talent I would also learn crwth and talharpa. But I guess I'm too old to start something new :laughing:

adidasss 03-16-2021 02:59 AM

Yeah I wonder when someone is too old to start learning an instrument.

I would love to learn how to play a piano, then the guitar and drums. I think the latter would be the most difficult, just airdrumming different things with 4 limbs proves quite difficult. Not sure if that's something you can learn?

Same here. A little old to be able to master anything really but...

Piano. My grandpop was a wizard on keys, apparently. He died before I was born so I never got the chance to hear him. But it comes rather easily to me - just never felt challenged or intrigued enough to really learn.

adidasss 03-16-2021 09:50 PM

Yeah, to be honest, the whole 9-6 job thing is really putting a dent on my hobby ambitions. I'd also like to learn/improve on various foreign languages (Spanish, Portugues, Italian and French ideally). But I also have a lot of books on my to-read list, I still haven't seen all interesting movies ever made (although that one at least is within my reach), there's loads of classic music I haven't gotten around to properly listening to (working from home during the pandemic helps) etc. If I go to the gym 5-6 times per week, AND HAVE TO COOK AND FEED MYSELF, it seems there's not enough time in the day to do everything!

I don't know how you managed to get that encyclopedic knowledge in films and classical music while holding down a job, something must have suffered. :/

ando here 03-16-2021 10:57 PM

:) Never enough hours in the day is there? I think it’s a blessing to feel that way. Though, to be honest, the older I get the more I relish doing absolutely nothing.

Wizzlito 04-17-2021 08:23 AM

I'd like to improve my drum sequencing with Reaper. I have a long way to go since my rhythm skills (timing and snare drum rudiments) are terrible as well as my drum sequencing skills. I just gotta get on that horse and start riding it.

jamescheng 05-08-2021 01:03 PM

1. piano
2. guitar
3. drum
4. violin

Mucha na Dziko 05-09-2021 02:02 AM

The Sitar

I've had one of those for a couple of years now, but where I live t's extremely hard (impossible really) to find a teacher/guru, and learning it by myself isn't easy either.

I can play some stuff, or add a sitar part to a song I'm working on, but I wouldn't really call my sitar skills anything near "knowing how to play it"

Poiuy 05-09-2021 02:34 AM

Sitar, drums, tabla, bass guitar

Mucha na Dziko 08-08-2021 12:21 PM

I just bought a harmonica.

Any tips on learning to play it?

I'm trying to learn bending, but I kinda feel it's not the place to start

bleedmuzic 08-27-2021 03:07 AM

I love guiter. I am a gitarist. all the day i either listening music or or playing guiter or make some music peice.

Anatolie 09-01-2021 08:30 AM

I would really love to learn how to play an electric guitar. I would also love to how to play a Cristal Baschet(i how its a rare one but yes i love it)

TheBig3 09-01-2021 08:43 AM

Trumpet. Easily my favorite instrument to listen to. Bad songs are made better by including it.

I'm trying to get a trumpet for a couple of years now – I never have the money.
I played it three times so far, and loved every second of it.
Though I'm thinking whether a cornet is not a better option – it has a very similar sound, and is much cheaper (also Don Cherry plays it...so there's that)

Ayrin 12-06-2021 10:09 AM

I mastered the guitar a year ago. Now you can't tear your ears off

Mucha na Dziko 12-06-2021 11:29 AM

What do you mean by mastered?

I'm getting a trumpet for Christmas.
Then I hope to enlist for the trumpet individual course at my current music school (I'm on bass now; with additional classes of drums, piano, electric guitar and...um...latino/african percussion instruments in general)

vonbokhevich 01-14-2022 07:13 PM

I used to be pretty alright at guitar but I forgot pretty much everything I learned due to me hitting a brick wall of depression and going nearly two years without practicing. I also have a violin that I've messed around with but never actually learned how to play.

Tristan_Geoff 01-14-2022 08:06 PM

Hurdy Gurdy

ando here 01-18-2022 06:11 PM

Piano. Grandpop played it. Inherited his gift of perfect pitch. Just not my calling. As a hobby, though, I’ve slacked off considerably. Still enjoy banging out tunes by memory in the wee hours of the morning.
