I'm curious to see who can and cannot! If you can, list what you can play please. I play an Alto saxophone. Not bad if I do say so myself...been playing it for 4 years now.

I've played the violin for 18 years, the piano for 12, and the viola for 4. I can also play the trombone, but I only did that in high school band for a couple of years. I play my violin and viola at weddings sometimes for pay. It's great fun.

I've been playing guitar for about 5 years now. My heart is with my Jackson SL1 electric guitar, it sounds incredible. I love turning up my amp and rockin' out to some metallica, pantera, or any other heavy rock/metal. I was actually in a band for a short time, but unfortunately we lost our bassist and decided to end the project there.

I am playing guitar from past 4 years .We guys are jamming everyday so that we can prepare ourself to jump in the current music secene .Beside guitar I am also learning harmonica from my brother so that I can experiment a bit in the band and play lead in harmonica instead of guitar.

I've played the Veena for about 8 years from my school days. I could learn playing songs and classical music on my own and could play quite well. I have developed that skill on my own and can play it even now, after 20 odd years. Infact, my family members were astonished seeing that. When in College, I also learnt playing the Guitar. Now, I am trying my hands on the keyboard, all on my own, by trial and error method. I've tried hands on the violin as well, with a fair amount of success. My family has a strong music background and hence, the dexerity at learning new musical instruments. But I am keen in playing the flute, which I feel is a bit difficult. I could not play a sensible note.

I can't say I can play an instrument. I tried to learn to play the harp some time ago, but no success. I chose harp because I like the sound of harp, so melodious and enchanting. If I get the chance , I will definitely give it a try again.

I can play violin. Actually i am learning to play. Its been 2 months only. I am afraid i cannot make a list since that's all i can play. I had tried flute once though. It took 3 days, only to learn how to blow, so that the sound would come. I only know how to do the octave note cause i still can't blow properly and not for a long time. It would have been a lot easier if it was one those flute which produces sound just by blowing it.

I've been playing guitar for 9 years now. I can also play piano.I studied how to read noted when I was 11 but I was really forced to learn when I was 19 'cause we really need a pianist that time. I tried to play violin but I didn't have enough time now so I just sold it. I was a drummer for a time but it has been 4 years since I last played it so I'm not sure if I can still play that now.
