in college and play alto sax, clarinet, and flute. gotta keep that jazz thang alive. :D i'm trying to form a band after i graduate.

I played piano from the ages of 6 to about 11/12. I played clarinet 5th-7th grade. I think I'm gonna take up piano again, I kinda miss it.

I played the flute from 5th-12th grade

Clarinet every now and again

My daughter's learning how to play the flute now. :)

I played the upright bass, in 7th grade.

...now, I fool around with the piano/keyboard. I play a pretty funky C-scale if I do say so, myself. :cool:

None, my parents couldn't afford the rental fee when I was in elem. school. I wanted to play the flute. :(
ETA: funny thing now that I think about it b/c my sister and I took ballet from the time that we were in elem school well into college. So I guess they weren't all bad ... and cheap. LOL.

Oh well, I guess I could always learn to play an instrument now. :)
I heard that some of them can cause your bottom lip to split a little. Is that true?

SC

Soror SC,

The flute I had was a Bundy. I played it from 3rd-8th grade. I never got a split lip from all of those years. Hope that helps.

Piano...but then my piano teacher had a heart attack (and dropped dead) while giving me my lesson and I could never play again. I was 6 y/o when this happened.

:eek: :eek: :eek: I imagine not.

I played the recorder, flute and piano for many many many years. I'm not nearly as good as my brothers, one of whom has been playing the steel pan since he was 3. The other one has been playing the piano since he was 4. I'm the loser of the bunch:(

that must have been awful! Now i feel bad about all those lessons i took when i WISHED the instructor would drop dead. awwwww.

I played the flute and tri-toms

The recorder (lol I think we ALL had to play that thing in elementary school), the flute, piccolo (basically same as flute), and a little guitar (acoustic)

Just wondering . . .what are tri-toms ??:confused:

I played piano at age 6, flute age 12,drums age 14, trumpet age 18, trombone age 20 those were the instruments I've played, now I play organ and piano I am writting a story about a band called "Shining Stars" I play hammond organ and piano in the story and I sing too
