Piano for eight years, French horn for five, and trombone for over a year (jazz band).

I'm currently in grade four for piano... I could be further, but I've been slacking off a bit for the past couple years.

For trombone I'm not too keen on it, but I want to play in the jazz band. I've got a used trombone that has a damaged case (the front end where the bell sits has the frame bent open a bit at the bottom). It's a real pain when I go to lock it up, as I usually have to sit on the case to get the front latch closed.

I enjoy playing the French horn, although I'm quite bad (as with every other subject in school) with homework. The tape assignments are worth 25% of my final grade, but this latest one I handed it in on the final day, and apparently it wasn't good enough (go figure). But I was practising those scales like no tomorrow over the winter break, and every time I was home alone. It was just those darn high notes (above the high G) that were really killing me.

I play a tiny bit of piano, a slightly larger bit of viola, and I'm three years running with the violin.

I play the acoustic guitar, a little keyboard, and the recorder. I also sing but I have no clue what I sound like. Although my friend wants me to try out for american idol in a few years.

I'm teaching myself so it's kinda hard.

I play the piano and I sing (operatic), though I don't know if the singing voice counts as an instrument. I once upon a time played the guitar, but have lost much skill since then...
