I wish I had a clarinet...
 
I used to play clarinet BUT THEN I GAVE IT UP UGHH

and I don't own a clarinet anymore :(

Derek 05.16.2008 05:43 PM

Also to mention that I was 12 when I gave it up, but now I'm into composition.

And that clarinet is the sweetest sounding instrument ever.

dont' know about swetest ever but it does sound heavenly

I love to hear a clarinet in music. It's so solemn and sure-sounding, it's a great compliment to an acoustic guitar and a double bass. It's one of those instruments that just sounds like it really has a soul in it, and in every note that is played a truth is revealed.

I wished I played the clarinet.

My mother plays it. Sounds like a dying goose.

Lurker 05.16.2008 06:21 PM

What? The clarinet or your mother?

Clearly she doesn't play it very well.

pbradley 05.16.2008 06:37 PM

I once played percussion.

And then I gave up on that and bought a bass guitar. Far superior exchange.

thats ok, clarinet sucks, you need to get a bad ass american instrument, like the guitarron!

 

PAULYBEE2656 05.17.2008 06:56 AM

erm, the guitarron is a mexican traditional instrument is it not?????

The recorder is surely the Conan the Barbarian of wind instruments.

Derek 05.17.2008 09:02 AM

Also to note that I can play any woodwind instrument.

The clarinet.

But she has gotten a lot better at it (she used to have a crappy reed).

I started to learn clarinet but stopped to learn the flute. I like the flute better.
From what I understand my mom gave the clarinet to my aunt for my cousin to learn.

Everyneurotic 05.17.2008 02:22 PM

i want wood and brass instruments.

Glice 05.17.2008 02:36 PM

I play clarinet. It's a troublesome instrument. It's fairly easy to get a nice sound out of it, and I can play across three-and-a-bit octaves with relative ease, but it seems like you have to play for a million years to get beyond that, which I haven't found time for yet.

Diego María de la Concepción Juan Nepomuceno Estanislao de la Rivera y Barrientos Acosta y Rodríguez to give him his full name!

Most people I know picked up an instrument for school when they were a kid. I picked up percussion (then of course regretting later for something more interesting) and my brother played the violin. A friend of mine played and still plays the cello fairly well.
