I've been playing saxophone for 6 years, although I'm quitting my school band because I don't believe it's been helping me improve and I don't really enjoy the music we've been doing. I'd rather do my own thing or get together with someone else and play stuff because I still like the sax and don't want to give it up.

 

I did piano for a year when I was younger. I'd like to pick it up again but I don't know if I'd ever get as good as I want to be.

I don't play any instruments, but I've always wanted to learn the violin!

I think it is more important to understand why music sounds so good, rather than being able to play an instrument. Being able to listen to a music piece and nod, known what is making it sound the way it does, is a form of skill that I like developing (god it sounds so cheap to say it that way)

I like to think I'm pretty good at saxophone (in school I fit into that category of "not as good as the music majors, but as good as or better than everyone else." As long as we're talking strictly symphonic and marching band music, anyway. I'm hot garbage at jazz), I can kind of play clarinet, I can play scales on most brass instruments, and I remember the keys on piano but not well enough to actually play anymore. Haven't touched a piano since elementary school (I've got crazy long fingers, so maybe I should start again). I also really want to learn guitar, but I don't have the money for one right now.

Used to be the drummer for my grade and high school band. Was pretty fun.
