Any musicans on the forum?

Play trumpet and cornet, mainly with brass bands, can step in on soprano, flugel, or euphonium if required.

Play a little piano, but not brilliant. Been playing with bands since I was 10.

Learning the piano at the moment. Just mastered homecoming by kanye west and chris martin lol. so chuffed when i played it through without a cock up. next up is mgmt. kids, looks a bit easier.

I started playing the guitar when I was seven - almost 30 years ago. Played in several metal bands but the best was a rock'n' roll band where we supported the likes of Alan Price and Mick Avory. I also played a few low key classical concerts too. Although I prefer the classical/Spanish element of the guitar a lot more I hated performing that side since it is technically demanding enough without the added pressure of solo performance. I got a bit lost on the music front when my aged music teacher of 20 years (who by that time became a bit more of a music coach) passed away back in 1998. And I struggled to find any direction so I hung up my strings. I eventually found a great teacher who was willing not to teach but just to coach on technique every few weeks. He go me into jazz and his input got me playing some of my favourite piece which I thought I would never achieve. So I dabbled very lightly in jazz styles and now when ever I pick up a guitar I automatically fall into that style. However, with family commitments like many things it's on the back burner now. Perhaps I should start growing those fingers nails again……..
