    Oooh, more societies to join

    I play sax (tenor mostly) and trumpet. I can also make a tune out of the piano, guitar, horn, euphonium, clarinet and oboe, though I wouldn't declare myself to be particularly talented at any of them

    I'll join - thanks for the pm

    I play flute and piano to diploma. I play guitar, bass (guitar), drums and sax quite well for fun, and I play violin, viola and clarinet quite badly (had lessons but didn't enjoy!). I also sing (normally drunkenly) but am about grade 7 standard. I'm a music geek and love it!

    Viola is slightly bigger and tuned differently. The neck is a bit shorter in proportion with the body, too.

    Lol it was quite easy since I could already play guitar...I got drunk one night, stole a friend's bass and forced him to teach me how to play Then we had a bit of a thing when we got drunk of playing guitars and being all rock-band-y. Fun
