I like tenors. I personally can't play them as good as alto/bari. I'm too stuck in Eb that all the key signatures on a tenor are weird compared to all the others. But I love tenors.

I LOVE tenor saxophone. It's just I've never gone any further then holding one.

I tend to like the sound of the tenor more then the other saxophones (especially soprano, which honestly I can't stand.)

i like the sound of tenors

Been playing Violin since I was 6.

Woot 200th post.

I wish I could play string instruments. Maybe I'll take a string methods class before I graduate.

I play the guitar, drums, and I know how to play the Recorder a little bit.

There is a difference?

I play drums, bass, guitar & piano and i'm starting to learn to sing. >.< I'm horrible at it. But i'm great at everything else

How come there are only two floutists? I was forced to play the flute because I had a hole in my eardrum, but i think I would have chosen it anyway. It is awsome!

Piano, violin, and guitar.

I like the piano the best. I've been playing that the longest, for about 8-9 years, violin for 5 years, and I'm not that great at the guitar just yet, despite the fact I've had them for 3 years. XD

I quite like the flute. ^^ My friend plays that, and it makes me want to learn to play it as well.

I play the bass. I own a very nice string bass that I use to play jazz and some classical music. I also play electric bass, I play rock and jazz with this. I have been only playing for 3 years, But I play almost an 1/2 to 1 hour every single day, I also play in my schools jazz band, orchestra, and chamber orchestra, Soo I'm quite good. Actually, just today I played in my audition for jazz band, and I wrote this cool little tune that my teacher liked so much, Hes gonna rewrite to so the whole band can play. I didn't even think I was any good at writing music, oh well.

I also can sing good. I sing in my church's choir. I sing tenor, Although I have very large range, i can sing soprano and even descant parts.

Flute players FTW!

btw, your sig is amazing. I'm in that contest, the women sig contest... ugh... I suck and I'm pretty sure I lost, but oh well. I tried.

Piano and Cello. I've lost most of my Bow skills to take up bow and arrow skills, but I'm still pretty good at piano.

lol I forgot how to read sheet music.

Can it stay that way? I wish we had that small of a flute section in my band class! That'd be awesome, because then the two oboists would have their time to shine. ^_^

One of the best bands: Bon Jovi

Agreed. This semester in Wind Ensemble, we have 8 flutes......

*falls over dead* I HATE IT!! At least we're all good. ^_^

If you're all good, then having that many flutes isn't a bad thing. In fact I have to say our flutes sound really good this year. We have a flute solo, and the soloist knows how to play and has perfect vibrato!

Last year we had a bunch of flutes that, to say the least, couldn't play at all. >_<

Yeah, our flute teacher really works on having us all learn the same style, so in ensembles there's no question on "how we should sound" or "what style we need to play" We just know.

Being an upperclassmen, I get to put these freshman flute players in line, who think "Well, in high school we did this...." Oh I could slap them. Welcome to college. I especially hate that talk in marching band. Every band is different you're gonna have to make some changes...

Anyone here been in marching band? Best thing EVER!!!

I was in marching band... It was pretty much the most awesome thing ever. Performing in front of like 40,000 people is something that can never be forgotten!

I haven't realized much different from high school band, other then the fact that our aim is to perform, and not to win some stupid contests. (Just had to say it, that was a reason I hated concert band in high school.)

I loved competing! Our band was good. And we have intercollegiate or... intermural (whichever I can't remember) Which means they don't go to other colleges, and we don't have other colleges come to ours for games. So we play for a really small crowd at half time. Its ok, we deal. I just miss the big crowds and the other band getting jealous of ours. Mwahaha!

Is the synthesizer considered an instrument?

I play electronica music alot
