24. Music School in my town
There is a "Clavier School of Music" here in my town.
What do they teach?, you may ask...
Hahaha, silly you! Why they teach VIOLIN, of course!

3. Violin
Can cover such a range of music, soulful or spirited, and I love strings. If I had to pick just one, I think that would be it.

14. Yes, the voice
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 01:21 PM by pagerbear
So versatile. So beautiful. So expressive.

There's a reason they when another instrument is made well that it sings.

(But as a singer, I'm a bit prejudiced. And I do hate to choose just one.)

I'm voting for the one I'm holding in my picture. It's a Gibson Les Paul studio model. It sounds really nice.

10. Bassoon
Although I could certainly live with French horn.

One of my favorite ensembles is the wind quintet: flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon & horn. Check out Hindemith's "Kleine Kammermusik."

20. Hahahahah - expected...
There is a wind instrument known as a "Faggot", also called a stick -- can't think of the name - but it's like an Oboe. There are some who frequent this board whom I might suspect...uh...never mind.

32. I played bass A LONG time ago in the 70's
just for a couple of years in high school. I remember 4 strings on a bass, but I see more people playing these basses.

Pardon my ignorance, but what notes do these extra stings represent?
