If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

That's an interesting combination! I like to learn how to play at least minimally on a lot of other instruments...my brother just got a beginning trumpet - He's very loud, but I like to play it! And saxaphone has the same fingering as flute, so that's fun to play as well.
I wish I knew how to play everything

it take a bit of coordination and concentration, much moreso than piano. but if you already play piano, it's not such a huge difference either. it's fun too! and not everybody plays it!

It sounds lovely. (And I already know how to play the piano too!) We used to have an organ at our church and I would always like to sit in the pew next to it during church services and look at all the tiers of keys and all the pedals...the lady who would play it always took her shoes off while she was playing. But our church sold it and now I don't know where else there's one I could play on.

see. honestly, that's the problem, finding one you can practice on. you can play without shoes...or shoes with a very smooth surface...or put tons of tape on the bottoms of shoes you dont really care about. anyway, i hope you can find one, because honestly, it's rather fun!

Hmmm...I really should. *thinks any excuse to cover the bottom of her shoes with tape is a good one*

I'm learning piano. I've only been going for 9 months...but I guess I'm doing OK.

I'm learning to play the piano, and organ if I can get my hands on one.
We just went to a homeschool expo and signed me up to a new piano teacher. (just some extra info for in case you care)
