Do You Make Music? by AIDSquirt November 13, 2015 at 4:11 AM UTC

I'm making this post 'cause I'm getting pretty seriously into playing music, and wanted to see what instruments any of you guys played!
If you do play something, you could also share some songs you play :D

I'm intermediate/advanced in piano, Mozart is my favorite composer because I like his flowing style.
I just finished learning Sonatina in G Major by Thomas Attwood (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeBxF-5cYV4)
I'm also learning Gerudo Valley from the Legend of Zelda (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWuYNz1SoHQ)
I'm also learning "You're a Mean One Mister Grinch" and a "Moonlight Sonata" / "God Rest All Ye Merry Gentlemen" crossover (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fu5IQE3mAdw)
None of these people were me playing, btw xD I'll take videos some other time

(I'm also a beginner in Guitar and want to learn Violin, Banjo, and Ukulele)

So who shares a love of music :D?

Piano is a neat thing to play, and those songs sound incredibly cool! :)

I myself am experienced in trumpet and trombone playing, and I am learning the saxophone.

Saxophone is so cool I wish XD 
I'm not really good at instruments I... *doesn't know how to make this NOT sound dirty* have to put my mouth on/blow into xD

I've been playing the guitar for 7 years.
I don't really stick to one genre of music. I play whatever interests me at the time :P

I play piano and have played it for over 7 years now, but quit lessons about two years ago. My skill is slowly dieing :(
Hopefully I can start piano lessons again :D
Right now I am trying to play Two Steps From Hell-Strength Of A Thousand Men, and Dark Star Core(From Mario and Luigi Bowser's inside story).
