What instrument(s) do y'all play? - John Spiegel - 06-18-2013

So there's a buncha people here that draw, snore! (jk, don't hurt me E> art)

I ain't seen a musical thread with my whole twenty seconds of looking, so I made my own. 

MY INSTRUMENT(s) OF CHOICE: Harmonicas!


You can access the channel I made with the surname of my character if you want to listen to whatever garbage I throw on there.

Here's a crappy (pretty typical) go at some stuff, in particular the FFVII theme: [youtube]l-kK4FyBFow[/youtube]

I'm a flute player! Was a really good one too.

Naaah not really, I tried as you can see but it's not for me.
I play guitar but I've yet to record anything, used to be in a small band a while back but we lacked a permanent drummer, so it all drifted apart. Need some inspiration to continue playing!

Nothing says you can't pick it back up! I used to be in marching band wayyyy back in jr high, so that means nothing to my musical abilities now! I'm just now transitioning from "play/learn by ear" to reteaching myself how to read music. It's funnnnn!

I'm actually probably in the range of flute music right now (Irish/Scottish stuff), not sure why that's directly important, but I said it.

I played the snare drum back in junior high but now I've been playing the piano to learn songs from final fantasy mostly. I've been practicing this song in my free time because I thought it sounded awesome!

Go make some noise! That's awesome.

I've wanted to pick up a piano (because if I could pickup a grand piano I'd be buff). As for violin, the 10-hole diatonic harmonica pretty much plays the range of the violin, so I've been looking into violin stuff (Selbina theme from FFXI quickly comes to mind!)

Most of the stuff I'm trying to learn now is FF-related too. Usually from someone talking about a particular song and I'm all like "I WANT TO PLAY IT".

RE: What instrument(s) do y'all play? - Cosette - 06-18-2013

I would probably be classified as a serious musician. My main instrument is piano and harpsichord. (And voice)

Secondary instruments are viola and flute.

I played around on guitar and really liked it but I have to put that on the back burner while I focus my energies on piano and harpsichord.

Well it is a great song I have tons of em but its hard being a lefty and the piano is more right handed oriented! But i feel like we should all have a group jam session or something idk teehee! Tongue

I've I used to play a lot more than I do now, but I still pick them up after now for the feels.

Piano, Clarinet, Saxophone .

Major props! I want your superpower. /grovel "I'm not worthy!" The only other instrument (aside from guitar) I've played to any extent was an alto sax. I am totally not a serious musician, but I want to be, not professionally, but just able to jam either side of the spectrum (rock --- folk/ballads/whatnot). I got me a couple books of sheet music of various genres, as well as printed out more.

WE HAVE ENOUGH FLUTE PLAYERS TO FORM A QUARTET!
