Multi-Instrumentalists

**PohatuJr** · Posted: Sun Apr 05, 2009 3:13 am Post subject: Multi-Instrumentalists

Just wondering, who here on this fabulous site of scoring and heroism is a multi-instrumentalists, meaning, who can play more than one instrument.

I am, kinda. I play drums, bass, sing, guitar, and keyboard. That is also the order of how good I am. I'm a shitty keyboardist. A decent guitarist, a good singer, a great bassist, and a kick ass drummer.

How about you? Please don't post things like triangle, kazoo, cowbell, etc. Even a dead baby can play those.

I don't know, my cowbell teacher tells me it's a very difficult instrument and that's why I have so much trouble. Jk.

I took piano lessons when I was 6, played trumpet for maybe 2 years and was in 5th grade band and I've been playing guitar for 5 years. Guitar is my main instrument but I could pick up the others if I wanted to. I could pick up my sisters old violin if I wanted to. I can improvise pretty well on the piano and figure out songs and my friend's dad was impressed by my playing around.

I've played Piano, Trombone, Guitar, Bass, Drums, Banjo, and Harmonica throughout my life so far.

I also started singing, so far six months into it.

Hm, I've been playing Saxophone for about 4 years, Guitar for maybe 3/4 of a year (but I suck) and I'm just starting to pick up drums so I guess I could be called a Multi-instrumentalist, but I suck at everything besides Sax <_<

Drums and vox. Both started around the same time (December 2007). I mainly do metal drums and vocals (growls), but I'm teaching myself to sing as well.

When I used to play guitar I noticed how appealing it was to start playing drums or bass or whatever. It just seems to be easier to pick up another instrument after becoming decent at one. I can now kind of play guitar/bass, although I haven't picked my guitar up for a while. And could probably learn a few songs on drums without much hassle.

It happened to a lot of my friends too, who started playing guitar and about a year later they were great at guitar, but could also play bass if the had to and had learnt a few songs on drums. I think its just a love for music which makes people want to play more and more instruments.

Hmm... Interesting thread. I play Guitar and Tenor Sax(sax FTW!!!) pretty well, ok at drums, and can play bass if I had to. I can also sing adequately. I can improv on piano fairly well, play clarinet, and play alto sax . Lol, I'm pretty sure I could washboard. :P

I play the trumpet, baritone horn, trap set (drum set), guitar, bass, and sing. The order listed is how good I am from best to worst. Heck, if you think that is bad, I know a girl who plays 14 instruments :P

Bass, guitar, baritone ukulele (yes, it's a unique thingy), trumpet, synthesizer, accordion, and theremin.
That's somewhat arranged by skill level, I still suck at theremin, but actually owning one is half the battle.

Let's see...
I started my musical career in grade 7, learning the Trumpet, played that for a year, switching on and off the drums for my school band. Then went to Trombone, but hated that after 4 months, then went the Clarinet. That was decent, but I loved playing the drums, so ultimately I stayed a percussionist. And while doing that, I played piano for 4 years. And even before all this, played guitar for a year, really wanted to continue, but had to stop lessons and sell my guitar because of financial issues.
List:
Drums
Piano
Trumpet
Trombone
Clarinet
Guitar

6 instruments

I started playing drums in, like, grade 3... i was too young to be good, though. I only recently started to listen to amazing drummers. In grade six I started playing guitar and I am OK. I wanted to learn about musical theory 'cause I hated being a drummer who just hit shit and had no idea what major and minor meant, but instead i became just another douche bag who can move his fingers like the computer tells him *sigh*. I'm still working on changing that. Next year I plan on joining my friends in our school Choir(jeez, is that how you spell it?). and I love Latin percussion a ton, but that fits more in with drums. OH WAIT I FORGOT SOMETHING- I played French horn for 3 years and I still remember some things. French horn sounds cool. too bad no cool kids stayed in band so that i could still play it.
