Yup! I know how to play Oboe,English Horn, Clarinet, Piano, Percussion (Xylo, Vibes, Marimba,etc.). But I specialize in Oboe! well, now I want to start playing the French Horn and Violin! but most likely I'll start to play the Violin, since my parents are already going to buy it.Yay!I' m so happy, I'll start to play another instrument 😃

Quote from Mr.Garcher

Yes I can play Instruments. I played drums for two years and then moved on to bass, played it for four years and after that I moved on to guitar been playing it for one and a half year.
And I think I would like to learn play piano, It has a beautiful sound. 😃

i hope you still play those instruments, skill going to wasten is a sad thing

Yes, I still play drums and bass as well as guitar. 🙂 Music is just so beautiful thing.. There's noway that I could stop playing instrument that I have mastered. And I agree with you about the skill going waste thing.. 😃

Wow so many people CAN play 😀 ...I was expecting the poll to be more 50/50
I can't tell apart notes to save my life, not to mention playing...

I ain't that great at sight reading, or even basic reading, but I can play.

Piano's my forte, but I've also played violin and guitar over the years. What I'm really good at, though, are games... like timing your chromatics (middle C to the top and down again, I would've broken my record if I hadn't skipped one note by accident!) or seeing how many notes, on flashcards, you can read in a minute (I'm still in a good mood from getting 90 this week). But I totally wouldn't try a chromatic scale on anything other than a piano. I haven't played violin or guitar in ages, so it'd be suicide, to say the least.

Am I the only one who sees the irony of that statement?

Also, chromatic scales on a guitar are incredibly easy. I, however, do not use them, ever, because I play blues. I live within my pentatonic scales with an occasional flatted fifth. Some times I throw in a natural major/minor scale for the lulz.

Kudos on sight reading though. I suck at it, mainly because I play blues, where sight reading is not needed.

Lucky. Well, at least it gives me a way to measure myself. And I totally didn't notice the piano thing until you mentioned it - I need to start thinking in English again!! Or maybe learn Italian. Then I won't automatically use the French meaning of a word. But then again, unintentional puns are always the most fun...

Even if chromatics are easy, I'm so totally used to doing them on a piano that I most likely wouldn't have the right dexterity. That and I haven't touched a guitar in about four years, so I think it's safe to say I'm beyond rusty.

Like I said, pentatonic for the win. With the occasional flatted fifth in there, just for kicks.

Not at all. Well.. sorta... I suppose.

I took guitar lessons, but after three weeks of glaring and sneering at the teacher, I finally stopped taking them. I never wanted to take them to start with; I just took them because my sister wanted to and my mom always makes us take things together. I can play a cord or two now.

I can play a song on the piano, but I was never really motivated to learn anymore. The keyboard is my piano. XD

Piano - 13 years
Guitar/Bass/Banjo - 9 years
Harp - 6 years
Harmonica - 4 years
Drums - 2 years
I only took one year of sax, so I won't include it.
I'm also insanely amazing with the triangle. My main advice for mastering this complicated instrument? Hit it... with a stick.

Edit: Forgot the fiddle, but that's for when I'm visiting the crew down in the Maritimes and I've a few shots of scotch in me.

Did anybody say the triangle yet. Seriously, I'm one of those people who mindlessly beat on it when i get bored. Try walking around the house real slow and making a "ding" every 3 steps you take.
