Anyone play any musical instruments?

Hey guys,

Music is a huge part of my life and I've been playing music for close to 15 years. Was just wondering if anyone here plays any instruments? Pluck a little acoustic guitar? Love your Fender? Heavenly on harp?

For those of you who don't, is there something you wish you could play?

I play upright bass, not a lot but in my university's string ensemble and jazz band. I also just recently started playing tuba. I deke around on guitar and ukulele a little but I'm mediocre to bad at both haha. I wish I could play piano though. How I love Chopin!

So how bout you gents?
 
I bet wysper's neighbors envy Seraphim's! :001_tongu

Just joshing, I actually know a few people who play bagpipes. They come in handy on St. Patrick's day here in Scranton.
 
Man, I would kill to be able to pick up an upright bass. I grew up playing jazz guitar but have been sharing time with the piano for the last 5 years or so. Charlie Haden and Charles Mingus are major heroes of mine.

We are a little rural, so only have one close-ish neighbour. No complaints yet LOL
Given the volume of the instrument I am pretty careful when and for how long I play :a50:

Mingus! Our jazz band is playing an arrangement of Haitian Fight Song this semester. I'm excited
 
I play the piano, trumpet, and I sing baritone

started in elementary school with the trumpet through high school... Piano and voice in college... Still play the piano at church
 
I can still manage to play my baritone saxophone after a couple of years of no playing at all, so I think that counts... I also play the bass guitar, and can manage on a few other woodwind instruments...
 
Well, tuba, obviously. I play in a 30 piece British Brass Band, called Imperial Brass. We perform throughout north and central New Jersey.

I can also play trumpet, trombone, and euphonium reasonably well. I can play flute, clarinet, saxophone, French horn, and percussion with varying degrees of success, but I have to for my job; I'm an elementary and middle school band director.

I'm going to be going back to school next semester, to get a Master's Degree in Music Performance. It'll be tough to balance school with my work schedule, but I'm looking forward to it!
