What Musical Instrument Do You Play?

<3 French Horn Pride! <3

Abso-freakin-lutely!!!!! I started on the French Horn from 6-7th grade, switched to the trumpet & played until 10th grade. Then in summer band camp I tried my hand at the clarinet (didn't last long). I stopped playing when I joined the colorguard & became a majorette. My husband laughs at me still, and calls me a band geek - but he stopped once I found out he played the trumpet too!

I once had a BAND INSTRUCTOR who could make a FRENCH HORN sound as beautiful as a TOP-QUALITY Professional CELLO. AMAZING !!!

P.S. A LONG TIME ago...I played Saxophone and Clarinet in a "Dance Band".....also was a fairly decent "finger-picker" on guitar. Hands won't do those things anymore ...lungs won't either. Too danged OLD. Still fairly-good with a "Juice Harp" if I take deep-breaths and play only one stanza. ha-ha !
 
In high school I played the trombone, baritone and trumpet. Was just starting to learn how to play the bari-saxophone when I graduated.

Baritone Sax takes a LOT of WIND. BUT...there once was a SAX even BIGGER called a BASS SAXOPHONE......It could, more-or-less, replace THREE SOUSAPHONES in Volume of Sound. I think the last one was made in the 1920's. ---Never SAW ONE--- only saw pictures... HUGE THANG !!!
( I mostly played TENOR SAX. )

I like guitar music so I bought an acoustic guitar seven years ago but I've hardly played it.
 
Let me see? Guitar and drums both of the air variety.

Just not musically inclined and never had the desire. But I dated a couple ladies(not at the same time) that played the violin. Weird, didn't find out until after we were dating that they played. I must subconsciously like women who play violin, one of my weird idiosyncrasies I guess. Never thought I was normal anyhow.
