I always wanted to learn the clarinet, but at school there were none left so i learnt the cello instead and played in the school orchestra .......... also played the recorder including treble and base.

Not sure that i could read a note of music these days so i dunno how i managed as a child lol

I learnt to play the piano when I was young, but very badly! My father played the accordion and my brother still plays the uilleann pipes...similar to bagpipes but nicer:-) BC XX

Wow Brenda - that's a good CV!

I can play the recorder! Can pick out a tune on the piano. Had violin lessons at school ('cos I fancied the violin teacher!). Played the cello at school too!

Mind you, I'm tone deaf and can't sing at all! If I sing at home OH (who can sing and does sing) says "Jill, don't do that"

Hi Shimms, that was a way piano teachers did use, I taught the method off imagining cupping an orange. I get little time to play or sing now but still love to pick up a piece and play for the family on whatever instrument is handy!
