What kind of musical instrument can you play?

[CubeNois]

I teach and preform guitar and bass for my living. Use to play alto sax, and trumpet as well.

 

[BaconCuber]

French horn - not that good
Piano - okay-ish
Yes!!! I knew there were more band cubers!

 

[Eazoon]

I for the most part taught myself to play piano, but I can hardly read sheet music.

 

[kcl]

Music is my sport. I sing in honor choirs, play violin, French horn, and I make electronic music in Logic Pro.

 

[Gordon]

drums




Edit: I would love to play pagpipes

Meeee I can play violin.

 

[ducttapecuber]

There aren't any string instruments because band is better. Band Geek Beat Orch Dorks. Yep, I went there. I actually just got back from music/band camp this evening. I play flute mainly. I also play alto sax and have dabbled in the realm of percussion.

Well yeah I play French Horn and Trumpet too.

 

[Nilsibert]

I can sorta play piano, guitar(electric or classic), bass guitar and drums. Drums I'm just guessing, a friend played drums and I once sat and played. He got mad at me for being better them him when trying for the first time while he has had lessons for half a year :rolleyes:

 

[Tarhilion]

I play alto sax. I'm currently trying to learn to play guitar.

Short answer: Piano.
Wall of text (you can tl;dr, idc): I feel too lazy to go find links to my playing that may not even be watched by anyone. It's kind of my life, tohugh. I like to play piano for a short while and then go speedcube, it helps my fingers get started for the day. Then, after I'm in the warmed-up zone (which, at this time, means averagnig around 40 seconds), I go back and play piano. The movements I make while cubing (I have a very unconventional style that can be loosely tied with the term "burst-cubing") translate well to put my mind in a very good place for piano. I find cubing before a competition, performance, recital, lesson, practice, etc. calms my mind and gives me "piano-style" look-ahead. I rush MUCH less, and I have much more control over what I'm doing. I sight read much better (accurately and farther along, with less abrupt stops). I can't even play Chopin's Etude "The Bees" without having cubed first, or I'll rush the whole way through. it helps for fluid pieces. It does not, however, help for things like octaves and jumps. Cubing has an interesting effect on my playing

Different cubes make difference advantages and disadvantages. The SS Aurora makes my playing change to very relaxed, (sometimes too slow) fluid and legato playing. Dayan Zhanchi makes my playing faster, more frantic, and extremely accurate, but less emotionally productive.

 

[1LastSolve]

I play Violin, Viola, Cello, Piano, Recorder, Nylon-Stringed Guitar, Steel-Stringed Guitar, Flute, Xylophone, Bass Drum, and Double Bass. Out of all of these, Guitar bored me the most. The best, were Viola, Cello, Violin, and Piano. The sound of the Viola/Cello, is just amazing, its very rich.

 

[kcl]

I think I said this already but French Horn and Violin are my main ones but I play all the brass instruments and I sing bass for some choirs.

 

[EternalE]

to play an instrument is to make a noise come out of it. I can play all of them, but trumpet is my strong suit.

 

[Ross The Boss]

i cant play, but i practice vocals (growling, the best type of vocals ). im trying to join a metal/deathcore band, but im most likely gonna have to organize one myself.

 

[nuclearbigdaddy]

I play piano, alto and bari sax. I love music. I prefer bari over alto.

 

[ducttapecuber]

Explain why people usually choose bari over alto. And why do a lot (from what I've seen) really enjoy tenor as well? I'm a flute and alto player btw

Most people say it probably just as a novelty factor because it is such a low and interesting instrument to a non musician...but the reason I love it is because of the sound! I love the low and barky sound of it. Also because my favorite sax players are usually bari players.

And the tenor is the most common jazz saxophone.
