A long long long time ago I played the Flute, Trumpet, Harmonica, Bass Drum and Snare drum, I was learning to play the piano but the girl teaching me stopped as her boyfriend got super jealous. Pretty much after that I stopped playing all together and havnt tried to play an important thing since. Shame since I pushed it to the back of m and kind I cant even read music now…I mean I’m sure I can pick it back up if I tried, but no motivation to do so.

I enjoy listening to others play now.

Started piano lessons when I was much younger but never really stuck, so now I just sit back and enjoy the music :slightly_smiling_face:

I’ve been playing bass guitar for the last 40 years or so. I started off on drums but switched after a year or so after I realized that I couldn’t just “turn it down”.

#7

As I mentioned on another thread…

I play piano and violin. Is also sing- chorally, not solo. I’ve studied music theory and composition as well.

I play Congo drums, the trumpet, cornet/soprano cornet (it sounds an octave higher than a normal one), bugle and a baritone singer, on a good day can sing falsetto.
Obvs, I can also read music.

Also years of being a sound technician.

Ooh, falsetto. I’ve always been complimented on my falsetto, because I can instantly switch between that, and chest voice- while doing a scale or something.

Except it’s more of a head voice then falsetto.

@Chiquinho I’m playing a few pieces for an elderly group around Christmas. Other than Lilli Marlene, are there other popular songs from “way back”?
