Do you play an instrument?

[Hierok 11,831]

Been playing drums for almost 10 years. Also can play bass guitar and piano with limits. Want to try Trombone in the future tho.

Welcome at the drum corpse.

If only the Wii Remote would be considered an instrument since it could emulate many musical instruments in Wii Music.

[Whirlwind 1,050]

Sure Do!

Drums, Piano, Vocals, as well as compose music in Logic Pro X (if that counts)

I played the clarinet from middle school through college. Stopped playing after that.

[shadowwarp940 1,303]

I was quite the good guitarist and I played trumpet. Still do when I go visit my family down in Mexico, playing music just calms me down for some reason  

[Twiliscael 3,960]

Yup! Back in middle school and high school I played the trombone for the honors band, which was alot of fun and a nice break from the monotony of normal, sit-down-shut-up-and-LEARN classes I had during the rest of the day, in addition to learning more about music and its composition, as well as being exposed to classical music composers and pieces!

 

While that was the extent of my formal music education, however, I also play the guitar as well as a bit of piano. I have 2 guitars, a pretty standard Fender Stratocaster for just jamming on, and an Ibanez 7-string for when I'm playing or trying to learn metal songs. As for piano, I can't say I'm particularly great at it, but it helps with learning music theory as well as the fact that knowledge of piano can pretty much be translated to any other instrument. I used to record little demos/short clips of whatever riff or song ideas I had, running them through computer software and programming some drums, bass, and occasionally some rough vocals and MIDI synth stuff but finding the time to do it gets harder and harder!

I once tried learning the violin, but I gave it up out of courtesy to my family, the neighbors and neighborhood pets.

I can make farting sounds with my armpits though, does that count?   

[Vintjack Greasymane 3,460]

I used to play that annoying plastic flaute back in middle school, but I've never actually played any other instrument, even if I would have enjoyed (and still would enjoy) that!

I'd like to start taking saxophone or banjo lessons this summer, but I still have to decide whether to do that or taking singing lessons (people tell me I'd be good at lyrical singing, since I have a pretty deep and strong voice, and, coincidence, it's just the type of singing I'd love to do!).

[碇 シンジン 27,431]

i wish music is something really beautiful but i dont think i am able to do it though 

[EpicEnergy 23,125]

I don't play any instruments, as they just don't interest me.

[Rainbow Cloud 17,838]

No, I have no musical talent or ability so playing an instrument would be impossible for me  

[Thuja 3,658]

I used to play the clarinet a lot but since I can't get my hands on more reeds I can't really play it right now.  It's the same clarinet I had in high school but didn't play it for a while after that, I would like to but I don't think it's wise playing with old reeds.  I can also pick at piano a little bit too.

[Cagey 4,221]

I play ukulele and bass guitar, and I used to play drums when I was a kid. 

[DubWolf 17,203]

I’ve always played trombone and learned euphonium (taught myself the fingerings). I sort of can play guitar. Inexperienced but know how the instrument works. Just need the technique... I’ll finger the frets in the air when I hear a song to try to build that muscle memory.

[RaraLover 10,414]

I play the piano. I used to take lessons, but due to school commits, I've stopped doing them. I don't plan on taking lessons in the future at this stage. However, I do play and self-teach MLP songs for my enjoyment.

[Totally Nyx 35,953]

Yes and no. Do I play an instrument? Yes, a few, occasionally (or perhaps "rarely" is a better word). Do I play an instrument well? Not at all.

I had a small toy keyboard for a long time when I was younger. Nothing big, 22 keys, 37 if you count the black keys. Now I have a full size 88 key one, though I still only play rarely and am not all that good. I took guitar lessons once and occasionally try my hand at the harmonica, flute, and kazoo (Hush! The kazoo counts!).

[Jon C 229]

No, I wish I did. I think it's too late for me now in my early 20s though.

lol. I recently decided to try and learn keyboard - picked up some courses on humble bundle, bought a midi keyboard. I can't even remember as far back as being 20

[Treeglow Flicker 13,592]

I can play the ocarina and the keyboard to a degree. But I mostly use the keyboard for composing stuff on the computer.

What I really want to learn to play is the holophonor.

[Early Sunsets 2,106]

I used to be pretty good at saxophone (bari, specifically), but I started losing interest ever since I graduated high school and have barely touched mine in the past year or so. I can also play euphonium / baritone and tuba, but not very well. I also used to be able to play piano back in elementary school.

I've been wanting to learn how to play guitar recently, mostly just for jokes I want to pull at conventions. I'll probably buy a cheap piece of garbage from Amazon, then get something good when I can actually play and can afford it. Probably an Ibanez.

[zoloft 117]

I'm trying to learn playing the ukulele. Sadly I have zero talent and my ukulele is sorta poor but I still love it, very relaxing. 

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

I have a guitar, I took some classes for it in High School, but I don't really play it.

[Clawdeen 12,188]

No. I tried to learn multiple different instruments but I never really got anywhere.

[Astralshy 26,296]

No, I don't play any instrument.

[Evil Pink One 13,505]

Is mayonnaise an instrument?
