So, do you play a musical instrument? I play violin, and I want to learn guitar.

Heeey! Recorders rock! They can be so much cooler than what most people think. I play five different kinds of recorder at an intermediate-advanced level:

Sopranino recorder
Soprano recorder (the kind you get in fourth grade, but they sound awesome if you actually know what you're doing)
Alto recorder
Tenor recorder
Bass recorder

I've played recorders multiple times for church and was in an early music ensemble in college that consisted mostly of recorders, lute, krummhorn, sackbutt (a predecessor to the trombone, yeah, you're allowed to giggle at the name), harp and voice. So yes, recorders can be pretty rockin' instruments if you know what you're doing on them.

I also play trumpet and euphonium (my main instrument), am middling at the piano, and will hopefully be picking up the tuba as soon as I can get my hands on one.

My mother has an alto recorder. I have a soprano and a sopranino. I like them, but lately I can't be bothered practising...

I'm most competent at guitar, both acoustic and electric. That would be my main instrument.

I'm a pretty reasonable singer too.

Other instruments I can play to some degree as well are bass guitar, drums, piano/synths, harmonica and various percussion instruments (including the drums).

I've played piano for 10 or 11 years now. This is my 8th year on clarinet. I played alto sax through Junior High, but got to busy to keep up with it.
I also used to play recorder.....
I find it really funny that people give that instrument to small children. That's one of the most painful instrument when played incorrectly and I have yet to hear a child play it in a none painful way. I have a friend who plays the recorder in an amazingly beautiful way, though, so I'm not completely against the instrument!

I love playing the piano. I have played for almost 3 three years, I started late and I always wish I started when I was young. I truly have a passion for practicing and I don't mind, if I have the time, to sit for hours and learn. I even have a youtube channel where I am starting to post video's of what I play.

I also play in my church's band, but mainly I use a synthesizer on the keyboard for that.

Did you know that the piano is in fact a percussion instrument?

[Ottakar]

*deep breath*

I play bass, guitar, trumpet, cornet, tenor horn, (descant) recorder, bamboo flute, harmonica, pan pipes, cello, a little piano, xylophone/glockenspiel... and I think I missed one there. I always manage to miss one. I sing too. Maybe that was it. In any case I'm mainly focusing on voice, bass and guitar at the moment. I seem to play a lot of what Daniel plays.

[Tiria Wildlough]

What's a glockenspiel?
