I know a number of Forums members are trained or self-trained musicians of
considerable accomplishment, but this question is for the rest of us. Among
people who do not consider themselves musicians, what instruments do you
play? I am most capable on the harmonica and can play a wide variety of
music, mostly old melodic stuff, one or two Bach fugues, Stephen Foster,
a few Beatles, a little Piaf, this and that, mostly very tune dependent. Can't
do creditable blues. I can accompany string band recordings and similar CDs
with a slide whistle, in a kind of wacky way. I can play rudimentary tunes on the
recorder. I'm trying to learn the coronet, but find the fingering of scales a real
obstacle. The slide whistle makes me wonder if the trombone would work.
Are you similarly non-musically inclined, and if so, what instrument do you play?
