Do you play an instrument?
Sun Jan 30, 2005 3:54 am
I do! Violin and Piano. For about 4-5 years. Also, UIL is coming up (for me anyways) so what are some songs you are currently working on aswell? Doing La Folia (#1 in Suzuki Book 6) for UIL, and school stuff is too easy. I also don't practice (maybe like once a week or month), and therefore that is why I never advance anywhere. 
So..enough about me, what about you?

I play piano and euphonium (in treble clef). I'm doing grade 6 conservatory for both of them.
In band we're doing Entry of the Gladiators...Blues Brothers Revue...and a couple of lesser known pieces.

^ Ditto
My primary instrument is flute but since my college only has a pep band, I've been playing mostly piccolo these days.
Other then that I don't "play" much else but I can at least play a scale or two on clarinet, trumpet and trombone...I fiddle with my sibling's instruments when they're not in the house.

I play the clarinet in band.
I can play some simple songs on the piano because I have taken piano lessons for about 2 years when I was 10/11. I used to be able to play some very simple beginner's songs on my brother's alto saxophone, and if I try I can play a few notes on my sister's flute, but I have trouble with it.

Yep, of course. :)
Piano- 10 years
Percussion (basically what Inrun listed)- 4 years
Drumset- 4 years (I've quit though)
Violin- 2 years (also quit)
Recorder- 2 years (never continued)
As for piano pieces, I've just finished my RCM grade 10 exam. The pieces I played then were...
Repertoire:
Prelude and Fugue in D Major - J.S. Bach
Sonata in E flat Major - W.A. Mozart
Waltz in E Minor - F. Chopin
Suite Français - F. Poulenc
Rondo No. 1 - B. Bartok
Studies:
Study in F Major - C. Czerny
A Trifle - A.K. Lyadov
Currently, I'm about to start the London College program stuff, but not just yet. My piano teacher's making me work on rather difficult versions of Canon in D by J. Pachelbel (linked is a game that has the music, which probably sounds familiar to everyone- I play a five page, more difficult, solo piano version), Memory (that song from Cats), Unchained Melody, and some 1920's two-player piece called In A Persian Market.

Well, my flute is kinda in hiding in the corner of my room...don't think I'm really going to go anywhere more with it. Haven't even opened the case since before I moved...but I played for 4/5 years.
