Musicians?

[Emg]

Violin/fiddle here.......

I like just about any piece of music with a good violin/fiddle part. I can usually block out the rest of the song if it's an ugly tune...lol...as long as the fiddle part is good !

I prefer playing the slower sweet/heart wrenching tunes to fiddle music, though fiddling can be alot of fun...I'm just not very good at it...yet....lol....too slow !

I listen to country music more often because it's the only type of music where you can just about guarentee a fiddle in almost every song...lol.

I just love the violin...and can play on that thing for HOURS at a time without realizing how long I've been at it. It's usually when the hubby walks in and asks if I've had enough yet...that I glance at the clock and go

:huh:

I listen to mostly classical music. Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorak, Saint Saens and Grieg are some of my favorite composers. Some great violin works in those composers for you Emg. Try listening to Saint Saen's Organ Symphony live. The third movement will literly blow your socks off.

I'm on the far left check us out Robin Campbell Band , I play bass and sing a little too (not like Robin).

I play sax; mostly tenor and alto, but also some bari and soprano when needed. I've played for quite a few years, but mainly as a hobbyist. I play jazz on tenor for my own enjoyment plus I play in church.

Rrk...I like classical too ! I'm working on a Vivaldi piece now...Opus 3 No. 6 in A minor. Changing positions isn't as hard as I thought it would be, but still needs work...lol...

I'll have to check out that symphony you mentioned....!

[Emg]

Lol.........NO......but I do like that one........I have a harder time playing flats than sharps....and my fingers don't like to play over on the G and D string for very long.....but I force them to do it anyway...lol....they're still being trained...

 

[pophead]

I play piano. every once in a while I get to play in my church.
I want to learn the classic guitar, but I haven't gotten around to it, not motivated...
