I began to learn the piano because it is a good skill to have for future. I also play the drum kit, timpani and marimba and can play a few chords on the guitar!

I started playing the clarinet at school when I was 9 because I wanted to play music and it was the only instrument that hadn`t been sent away for repairs.

Lessee...I started playing piano when I was 5 because my brother did. But flute...it had to be divine providence working there. I`m not sure why I wanted to play flute so badly, but I`m glad I did. It comes very naturally. I was meant for it.

I played the recorder at primary school in assemblies and stuff, then i tried to do violin, but there weren`t enough places. i`ve had one of those mimi keyboard things since i was about 3, but just messed about. then last christmas i got a proper keyboard and am teaching myself that. at school i use the piano they have in the music room. i don`t know why i play, i just really enjoy the sound of it.

I started playing the piano when I was about five or six, I think. My older sister had started taking lessons, so, being only five or six, I wanted to take lessons, too. I was a copycat. But I`m glad I was. I love playing the piano.

I started playing clarinet 3 years ago when i was twelve. I started playing because the two twelfth graders in my school played them (the only two girls in a band of five) so I really liked the sound of the instrument, the look of it being played and I really wanted to play. I practically mentioned it to my parents and after a few months they decided to have me pay to rent it for six months (to see if i really wanted to play) and so I was stuck w/ a messed up plastic clarinet and after that my dad bought me a Buffet E-11. I still love to play the instrument although my busy school schedule doesn`t allow much practice time so i`m out of habit when it`s summer except for every once in a while just to squeeze in three thirty min. practices like required for band. lol.
I play in church too, really fun.
I also sing (alto) in choir at school, does that count? It`s always interesting. Definitely is helping me improve my ear. lol.


why? well.........i`m glad u asked!    16:04 on Sunday, August 10, 2003

I started playing clarinet because there was a concert at school with clarinets in it and i loved the sound it made. After that I got the thirst for music and carried on learning loads of instruments (saxophone, flute, piano, recorder, guitar, piccolo etc)

I started playing Cello at the age of five. Then, when I was 14 years old I started playing E-Bass, because I wanted to do something new (but I still play Cello, too). And now, I`m 15 and I hope that I will start playing Double Bass soon.
