What can you play, do you like it?

I play flute and am learning piano. I'm so pleased with my 10 second long piano pieces

I play piano and flute and was a fairly respectable baritone after years of singing lessons.

That's what I'm like. So I usually just turn them into poems. When I write something I have a song in my head so I usually take the rhythm of it, then I come back and don't remember what the melody was.

I play the flute, quite well, and the piano, not as well. I'm hoping to learn the violin as well, but maybe that's just a dream of mine

I would love to be able to play the guitar, but I just can't grasp it!

Well after over twenty five years of admiring other musicians,and now being the wrong side of forty I've finally bought my first guitar! Now all I've got to do is find the time and the patience to sit down and learn to play it properly!

None yet but my girlfriend is teaching me to play the guitar.
I used to play piano at school but lost interest in it.

I play Piano and love it. I started to learn the Baritone but i found that about as much fun as toothache (I came to the concusion that the Baritone is very much an ensemble instrument and played alone sounds a little bit shite )

I've always fancied learning the Violin. I've got a thing for strings. Hopefully one day i'll start to learn

Played guitar for 15 years. Can just about rattle my way around a piano. I cheat and sequence most of my music

I was planning to get piano lessons but never got round to it. I learnt the recorder early in primary school but have forgotten how to play it. I was also planning to learn the violin as well.

Guitar and mandolin,self taught.
Tried learning to play the flute but gave up after a couple of months due to being total rubbish at it.

Bass Guitar.

Not particularly well mind

I used to play clarinet, recorder and Irish tin whistle when I was younger, but I'm sure I couldn't anymore.
