I played the recorder while in primary (elementary) school (dunno if it's known by any other name) but I guess every kid around the school age of year 4, their parents get them to try out the recorder coz it's one of the easiest woodwind instruments to learn. Many try but very few stick with it. I still have my old recorder from years back and even my old sheet music. Maybe if I dig it out (and give it a bloody good clean

) I'll see if I can play it again and I'll let you guys hear. :^.^:

I also taught myself to play the piano/keyboard. Because I got to grips with musical score and the science behind music when I was a kid, it was relatively easy to make the transfer from recorder to piano. I'm no Beethoven but with enough practice, I can play pretty much whatever's put in front of me

Don't do it Action....for the good of the people...DON'T DO IT! (if it's the joke I'm thinking of)

There's a time and a place for things like that!

In my case, that "enough practice" is "a Lot of practice"!

but I probably could as well if I had a month or more of struggling with it every day.

Heh heh, it probably is. Here, I'll tell a cleaner one than the one I was referring to:

Another violinist, that totals 3 if i counted correctly. I've also tried to learn how to play the keyboard but ive pretty much given up on that. I might get back into it someday...

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #31 on:** January 25, 2008, 03:23:47 PM

I play the piano.

Malte279 · **Reply #32 on:** January 25, 2008, 04:26:18 PM

I play the keyboard and I have an ocarina too.
The quality of my playing is a different story though

Haha, I thought this was a pretty good viola joke:
What's the difference between a seamstress and a violist?

The seamstress tucks up the frills.

Awful.

I have and played a Trombone but after several years I doubt I can successfully play it anymore, but if someone asked I'd be willing to give it a try!

I play the harmonica. Just a beginner, though. I was in choir for six years and in theatre, so I also have a love for singing. I gotta practice outta earshot 'cuz a soprano I voice can bring on ringing ears
