does anyone else's instruments have names?

...See more my friends and I all agree that if you love your instruments you have to name them. no exceptions or excuses! if you name your instruments, tell us what it is! My electric guitar was my first guitar- it is a green schecter diamond edition. it has a really crunchy sound and I love it so much, nothing else has ever even come close. Her name is Alyssa I have a dreadnought Taylor acoustic guitar which is not my first acoustic but my first was a Taylor Swift edition Taylor acoustic and I guess special edition artist guitars don't really feel personal enough to have a name. her name is Charlotte My beginner Yamaha flute which I got in sixth grade is pretty beat up. It has a good amount of minor dents and scratches, and I use it for marching band. Her name is Rose I have another flute which is another Yamaha but it is the intermediate version with the gold lip plate. I just got it recently and it hasn't been played much, but I am going to use it in concert band. I think her name is gonna be Serafina, but it could change since I only got her so recently

Electric Guitar!

 June 9th
...See more Hello! I recently got borrowed an electric guitar last Sunday (8 days ago) I have been learning a bit to play, I can read strings on guitar tabs and also can decently do palm mute for now (Both things which surprised my guitarist friend, not to brag). Still have issues with frets as I haven't developed the coordination and muscle memory to move my hand on the guitar neck, but oh well, that is not something I can rush. I am getting a tuner too. The thingamajig ↓. I also got an amplifier there. Yeah that's all I wanted to say, I don't even know why am I posting this.

My Journey into music 🎶
by passionatePeacock7580
Last post
 February 22nd, 2025
...See more Dear music lover, I hope that you too feel connected to music. I'm a musician myself. You'll be surprised to hear the story of why I became a musician.  I have been fascinated by the song oru murai vandhu parthaya in manichitrathazh, in Malayalam language that released 3 decades ago. Its very mesmerizing the lyrics and music. When I was a child my parents and I were going thru the countryside of tamilnadu and my father was listening to flute music. Upon recognition of the song that was playing I told my mother isn't this the same tune from that manichitrathazh song. She said yes. The song was struck in my mind.  I researched and found that its kundalavarali ragam. I had the fascination to learn to play flute but never got the motivation. And then life moved on even though the fascination of flute music was struck to the back of my mind.  5 years ago, i had a good friend called Sanjay who unfortunately passed away in an accident. Our friends group were really shocked. We had a rememberance meeting for him and during that someone said that we shouldn't have an unfulfilled desire. If we desire something we should fulfill it at the earliest.  That was an eye opener for me and I went and joined music class the very next day. I've been playing flute for the last 5 years now 🙏 I hope to play kundalavarali ragam very soon.

...See more Hii, i'm Frances and i play the flute. I am also a part of an orchestra (mostly strings plus me and two clarinets) and i wanted to ask, what are your favourite little things about playing in an orchestra? Mine is the little clap that our conductor gives us after we finish a concert before she turns to the audience and bows. And one more - the bond formed between musicians who make silly faces at each other during rehearsals (aka me and the drums guy)

Playing an instrument as a hobby
by here4eachother
Last post
 March 27th, 2024
...See more Hey everyone! I play the Double Bass (Classical) as a hobby. I started in 2017 and have been going for lessons with a professional player for the past 6 years. Since last year I've started playing at concerts every once in a while and loved it. I love my Double Bass so much. Like, SO MUCH. It brings me so much joy and gives me hope. I cannot imagine my life without this beautiful instrument. Finding time to practice every day remains an ongoing challenge, especially as an adult with all the responsibilities that come with being one. It's also been great for my mental health, as it is a healthy distraction. I'd LOVE to hear from any of you who play an instrument. Whether you used to play, have managed to keep playing over the years or are looking to take up an instrument as a hobby in the near future, I'd love to hear from all of you!
