I have met my goal, I now play 10 instruments. I just got an harmonica.
I have been drafted inot my church's youth choir. It's kind of exciting. Except that the director (who is my previous piano teacher) won't let me play piano and sing.
Just a quick question for those of you who sing. If you have any tips I would be most appreciated.
Maybe if it turns out right I'll post the song on here.
Did Stradivarious (SPELLING?) ever sign his violins in any way? Just wondering.
I had a friend telling me about a show that used to be on PBS about colonial America. He was mad because one of the kids on there wasd playing a violin but it had an ebony fingerboard, pegs, and chin rest. He was ranting because he said that the violin was created in the 16th Century. Blah blah blah. He just kept talking and talking. It was really annoying.
I just got a guitar student. Guitar is one of my least knowlegable instruments. I'm kind of scared since I don't know what I'm doing.
Here's a pic of my mandolin. It's a used one but that's better than nothing.
