Who can play a musical instrument here?

[MrsBadgerTheCelloPedaller]

where has the rest of this thread gone?!

I change my name only to find the very reason for the change has vanished into thin air...

Oh I was hoping to read the 114 posts of MN who play an instrument... Where did they all go??

Aargh!
What is going on????

well it says there should be 114 + posts but I cant see them, can you??!

I can play the flute and piano a bit. I'm fat, but I can't make up 114 threads

Well, I can't see 114 threads either. Funny, isn't it?
I play the piano and I compose songs.

piano and oboe (but youngest sis nicked the oboe off me when she went to university and she never gave it back gggrr) - did all the grades on both of them

clarinet

Piano - grade 5 (but rubbish now, not played for years)

Saxophone (alto) - again, sadly out of practice.

flute (when young)
guitar (took lessons when i was 26 for few years) electric and acoustic (still not that great tho, but good fun)

I guess the original question is gone. I wonder what was the point of asking. Would anybody be interested in refreshing the skills and form a band? Is anybody interested in writing lyrics to music?

viola
violin
piano
cello
in order of proficiency

LOVE music!

foxinsocks! i guess she plays as well... what a cheek!

I teach the cello for a living

Oboe, grade 8. Never really play now. Lungs are buggered after years of smoking

Horn Grade 8, but not played for ages (apart from the other day when ds1 said "play baa baa black sheep on your tuba mummy")

Piano grade 6. But don't have a piano.

ah we sign back in then
well - I play the clarinet to semi-professional standard, used to teach and play for a living, still playing (for a very pitiful living) and hopefully soon returning to teaching and more playing too

at the moment do a lot of playing in show orchestras on piccolo/flute/clarinet/saxes

also play piano, recorder and sing (although not for a while now). did music at uni and then was postgrad at music college on clarinet

look at my charidee concert thread in this section, come along and hear me play the clarinet (and then come back and say I'm rubbish. Go on, you know you want to....)

Violin.

Piano Grade 5/6, recently taken it up again.

Oboe Grade 5.

Missed this the first time round.

Oboe - Grade 8 - still play regularly in local amateur and orchestras, and occasionally I get paid for doing it!!!

Piano - Grade 7 (I failed my Grade 8 ). After 14 years of living in a house with no piano have just bought one - it's fab , but I'm very out of practise!!!

I play clarinet (did grade 8 at school) and still play regularly in a local concert band, and sometimes a local orchestra. It is my main hobby and social life, and went back to the band when ds was only 4 weeks old, I was so desperate to do it. Also learned piano, got grade 7 when I was 16, then gave up and haven't played it since. I was just too busy at the time, what with school work and playing the clarinet.

Trombone- have great fun as other members of section are usually blokes!

piano (a bit)
flute (reasonably well)
neither often enough
