i thought it maybe would be fun starting playing a acoustic guitar or somthing or maybe a piano buts its to expensive to buy i think. What instrument do you play ? |

Is this a challenge for the worst topic ever? Tolst has it a the moment with "'pureness of sounds'" |

i don't know about that, but it certainly is the most "pretentious" topic ever :) |

No this is a good thread |

|

are you sure? I'm terribly sceptical. |
||||||||
|

I've been playing guitar for 5 years (though I've all but stopped practically) because I've put all my energy into learning keys/piano, which I've been playing for about 2 years now. I think I've lost a little guitar skill, though I'm still pretty proficient (probably about 80% of my old skill), but I'm fine with that because I enjoy keyboards much more, and I am better at them. |

i wonder witch instrument between the piano and guitar is the easyiest to learn does some on know ? |

I honestly think it's different for everyone. Not to give myself too much credit, but I've been playing keyboards for just under 2 years and pretty much everyone I play for tells me I am very good or a natural. I took 2 months of piano lessons when I was 9, and then didn't touch keys again until age 18. In 2 short years, proficiency wise, I was lightyears ahead of where I was with guitar in the same amount of time. Even after having played guitar regularly for 5 years, I had met people who had been playing for only 3 that were far better than me. I think taking those 2 months of lessons when I was young may have hardwired myself for piano to be more intuitive to me. All I know is that I get 50x the amount of enjoyment out of playing my synths than I do out of playing my 400 dollar acoustic or my 600 dollar electric guitar. (don't know why I mentioned price, since the total price of my keyboards was more than my guitars). |

At 18 how did you learned to play piano? That's always what I'm wondering... Books? Self-playing? Video? Teacher? You learned to read partitions? And how much time did you put onto it per week? |

Guitar, bass, drums, piano are my main weapons of choice. |

||||||||
|
|

|
|
yes, a real piano is the only instrument that i desire to play, i hope learn some day. |
||||||||
|

i think it's a the hardest instrument to learn after violin but yes once you've learnt it it's great cause you can play a lot of things nevertheless you need to be good in music theory and reading of notes to play the piano |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i agree, music is matematik indeed, you understand and you can play all in your mind (training hard) i remember in the school, learning piano jajaja! i... trying to read and play a song about a fucking little "bear" i never can play it |

keyboards |

piano isn't the second hardest instrument, and violin isn't the hardest... basically any non-tempered instrument (violins, cellos.. any instrument that doesn't have set steps) is fifty times harder than a tempered one (piano, guitar.. clearly defined steps) as you have to know exactly where to put your fingers with the non-tempered ones. |

this thread just suddenly became smutty, oh well. there is still much more scope for smuttiness ;) I've given up now but I play Grade 6-7 standard on the piano and grade 5 on the Double Bass |

i play keyboards, drums, and guitars. guitar is the one i play the most, because i came from an appalachian family. when i started hearing guys like eddie van halen or steve vai and so on, i wanted to play shred guitar, but i'm just not precise enough yet. so i take a looser, improvisational, zen kind of approach to the instrument, and try to groove on the timbres and resonations and so on, rather than trying to be the best. it's led me into ragas and that, droney kind of stuff, even my bloody valentine-inspired effects experimentation. for me, my favourite aspect of playing music is the physical exercise of it, the feeling of working my hands in new ways or thrusting my body into a drum pattern. |

I've played guitar for a big bunch of years and I'm thinking about learning piano. Don't know if I have the time or ambition, though. I want to buy a decent-but-not-expensive piano to put in my room, and I'd definitely get professional lessons. The guy who taught me me how to play guitar was excellent. |

i have ordered an acoustic guitar called Fender DG-5SBST i think its a good guitar it costed around 180 euro or 214 usd i have no skills in playing guitar from before so it will be a chalenge to learn how to play imagine how great it would be to be able to play like Nick Drake which inspired me to buy a guitar |

one of the hardest things to get through at the start is waiting for nerves to weaken/calluses to form on your fingertips. When you first start playing, its going to hurt like shit. I don't even have calluses on my fingers anymore, but when I pick up a guitar and play, it doesn't hurt my fingers at all. Well, unless I play for longer than a half hour straight. I think the nerve endings just died a little bit on the tips or something. |

piano. constantly... my mom wants to sell it. its not at my house, but i think it will be soon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you play it constantly, then don't let her sell it :) |
||||||||
|

I'm wicked at tapping out beats when I'm on the train etc... so I reckon if I had a button activated sampler I'd kick arse at that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
definately. there's the "where's it gonna go" situation when it gets here. :/ |

theres always room, though you may need to sacrifice another article of furniture to find it. :D My living room in my appartment is completely devoted to music, theres only enough room to sit on the couch and watch tv or work with our korg recorder which is sitting on the coffee table... the rest of the space is taken up by amps, 6 guitars (only 2 of which get played at a time), 2 keyboards, and drums. |
||||||||

|
i will play until my fingers bleed hopefully |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
whoa, stuffed a bit? . but yeah... whenever i picture it, i keep seeing the piano on its side next to the oven... your words reinforce the optimism, it will prevail i'm sure. |
