Hey all,

I thought it would be fun to see what type of musicians are on here.

You can list what instrument you play or what type of vocalist you are. I'll start:

I play the Piano/Jazz/Rnb/Reggae (i play by ear)

I sing RnB and Gospel/ I am also a shower singer ahhahahahaha:laugh: :laugh:

So what do you play or what is your style of sing?????

    I've studied classical piano and voice most of my life. Participated in various choirs since I was teeny tiny. Just love it!! Nowadays I'm hanging out with my creative genius and jazz master boyfirend :smokin: so I've been dabbling with more "relaxed" styles. We actually have an informal gig this Saturday, and I'm a bit nervous, because it's not the usual setting I'm used to performing in! I'm a soprano. I am also learning to play the accordion, (my boyfriend randomly surprised me with one our first Christmas together) and that's been a wild ride so far!

    :heart: Music :heart:

    I've played flute for years, drums, and some air guitar. :wink:

    I can sing alto or soprano and tend to like being more on the soprano side... but I love to sing, and sing anywhere and everywhere I can...and my friend who is also a singer and I can't help but harmonize to every damn song on the radio...

    I play flute and piccolo. Band and symphony orchestra as well as soloing (usually with piano accompaniment, though I've done it with full orchestra too). I've even played jazz flute ... that's FUN.
    My favorites, I think, are the good old classics. LOVE playing Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Dvorak, etc.

    I learnt the cello when I was a kid for years but gave up as I wasn't very good compared to my peers.

    Now I play the guitar, badly and sing worse.

    My kids as pretty talented, my daughter plays the flute and the guitar, my don the guitar and the trombone. Both are in a couple of choirs as well.

    I am a coloratura soprano. Trained in opera, though I have also done session singing for dance tracks. I am currently doing mostly choral singing as opera and small children don't mix.

    Lots of music geeks! Cool! I play clarinet and bass guitar. I played upright bass in an orchestra for 8 years, but I don't play anymore. I'd love to take it up again, but I can't afford one.

    I play the piano but my music theory is terrible! I need someone to teach me!

    I also played a bit of the guitar in the past but piano is my main love.

    I play the radio. :laugh:

    Seriously, I play piano for church occasionally - don't practice nearly as much as I should. I sing alto - duets with my husband or daughter, mostly.

    I play the flute, cello, sax and a bit of guitar, I've played in swing and jazz bands, I also sing in a choir at university, nothing professional and all for fun as Im self taught on most of my instruments. My main musical love is folk and metal. Big mix there I know. Jack of all trades master of none I guess, but music pretty much takes up all my free time and I love that :)
    Its great to see so many musicians here! Its always great to meant like-minded people.
