The TSR Musicians' Society

Count me in for that. I sing anything from Baritone to Countertenor and have been teaching singers since 1980.

I wonder if there'd be any interest in forming a TSR Singing Society. There doesn't seem to be one already (or I can't find one if there is ).

Excellent! How do you think we might gauge the level of interest in it? I posted here because I thought it was like a general gathering point in the Music forums, but there hasn't been much response yet. Do you reckon it might be a good idea to just put up a separate thread and see if there's interest? I've never set up a society before, so I'm not sure how it works.

This is a society of Musicians. You are more than welcome to join provided that you are a musician(Yes, That that includes singers). We have a wide variety of musicians from guitarists *bows* to pianists, to saxophonists to, I think there are a couple of Chellists about too. Whatever you play, you can almost guarantee you wont be the only one here

Be a part of the musicians society, one of the biggest societies on TSR by following this link!

Try starting a new thread and if you get enough interest i think you can ask a Mod to make it into a Society.

I meant to do this a little while ago but just didn't find the time and energy. I'll do it now.

I'm a singer and can play a bit on the piano

I play the piano (working towards a Trinity Guildhall Grade 5 and play trad [scottish]) and sing in Gaelic. Are there any other Gaelic singers out there?

Just so you know, we have a vocals society where you could come and talk about singing. Gaelic singing sounds interesting.

Well I play the piano and its grade 10, keyboard also, a bit guitar and some Chinese instruments like cucurbit flute. I'm planning to learn drum this summer so that I can write a whole song by myself. I'm just wondering that is anybody here being keen on writing and playing songs using some kinds of softwares? I want advice on it and THANKS.

Which one is the cucurbit flute? I have 4 Chinese flutes of different types (souvenirs not good quality) but don't know what they are. One has a hole which is covered with rice paper which I think is a ti. One is in the style of a walking stick which is blown from the end. One has a brass reed in it which doesn't seem very authentic and one is a simple 6 hole flute.

If you want to write your songs in musical notation, then the best software is Sibelius; it is used by professional music publishers and gives you good playback of your songs as well as perfect scores. If you want to control electronic instruments or use samples and computer sounds, perhaps with some live recording mixed in, then you are better with Cubase for PC or Logic for Mac.
