music Do you play an instrument?

For threads introducing new music releases, discoveries, or recommendations.
I tried to pick up the guitar, but it was too frustrating to learn. I didn't have an interest in any other instruments, so I stopped with the guitar after I nailed Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

But, I put my daughter through piano during elementary and into junior high as I know it's good to know an instrument to help in other areas. She can play pretty well, and I've been encouraging her to try and make up her own notes instead of just reading and playing someone else's works.
 
I took a few piano lessons when I was a kid, sadly I didn't follow up with it. Now I have pretty much forgotten what I learned. I was also keen on learning how to play the violin at one time, but gave up because of lack of competent teachers in my neighborhood.
What musical instruments do you play?
I love the piano. I was taught by a neighbour who used to play the piano for his church choir. Unfortunately, there was no other person around to help me perfect my skills when he left my neighborhood.
 
I used to play drums for a local pub and then tried my hand at violin.

After my you-know-what had been thoroughly kicked by the string instrument, I decided enough was enough and moved on to other things.
 
I don't play any kind of musical instruments, however, when I was in my teens I tried learning how to play guitar but due to lack of practice, I could not master the skills

If you still in interest in learning how to play guitar, you can be able to do it. It's not as difficult as playing violin can be.
 
Same here. I took piano lessons as a child, but I was unable to practice what I learned because I got busy with school. If given the chance, I would love to learn how to play the drums.

This is quite interesting. I also have a musical background but life can be so hectic at times, and that is why i did not continue practicing. I’m thinking about getting back into music soon.

I know how that feels too because there are so many other things of my own which I learnt as a kid but had to abandon them along the way because of time to focus on them not being available.

Glad to know that you attempted learning guitar. I do too but wasn't really good at it. I have seen so many people get introduced to a musical instrument, and most of them quit, sometimes after a few weeks or months, sometimes after a few years. It's a very common thing especially if the instrument is hard to learn.

It was not easy to learn guitar, so I attempted to play it. That is why it is usual to get frustrated when you do not improve to the level you are expectant of. I still have the dream to learn guitar one day perhaps I would try it again.
