[hobosdelight]

I'd love to play a contrabass and definitly a Sitar. I love the way it sound. Soo stringy and resonating.....amazing.

[aa.enigma]

There is no instrument that I want to play but I cant
I just want to play drum and I have already been playing drum thats all about me

[Violinschlüssel]

Violin or harp.

[Dorsetmike]

Depends if you count the voice as an instrument, I used to sing counter tenor in church choir and small groups, in my 20s I was still sometimes taking some soprano parts, at about age 40 a major change in lifestyle and family circumstances meant dropping choral work, result - with disuse the voice range deteriorated, now gone, I wish I still had it.

Man there's so many instruments I would like to learn:

1.Drums
2.Bass
3.Bari Sax
4.Tuba
5.Piano

[Sonjia Weber]

I would have loved to play Violin and Piano

Violin because it sounds like the Human voice
Piano because of it's elegant nature

BTW: Can anyone explain the difference in Piano and Fortepiano?
Is the sound? or parts of the piano?

I really want to play the Soprano or Alto Saxophone!


And the Fortepiano looks much different than a normal one, and it does sound different.

[Krummhorn]

I really want to play the Soprano or Alto Saxophone! . . .

Alto is wonderful - my son took up that one. Soprano is probably one of the most difficult of the sax family to play. I've heard more than one person making reference to the "Agony Stick" when talking about the Soprano sax.

[Mat]

Thanks Krummhorn, that's very encouraging...

[mathetes1963]

Any kind of keyboard!

[Aristide]

The trumpet
The bansuri

As my mother was (is) a pianist, I was - ehh - forced to start studying the piano at the age of 5. Although my interest went to the pipe organ very soon afterwards, I really wanted to study the trumpet but my mother wouldn't let me. In those days I pretty much had to go with that statement.
I could start to study the organ at the age of 10. I have been playing the pipe organ probably every day since that day 35 years ago and my life is all about that (including some regrets).
Just last year, I wanted to materialise my interest in the trumpet and finally bought one. Just to experience "playing for fun", as opposed to the organ which is so often "playing for work". I haven't reached the "playing for fun" part yet but I WILL !
I discovered the Bansuri (North-Indian bamboo traverso flute) several years ago at the Musicora music fair in Paris. Flute builder Seli was selling off his work there. That's when I heard the bansuri from up close for the first time. I've been mesmerised by it ever since and I'm planning to take up its study this year or the next. This should broaden my horizon on totally different music.
I'm happy side-stepping from my usual instrument and could advise any musician to do the same one day.

[Bassoonist]

Oboe and/or English Horn.

I'd also really like to learn saxophone better.

[methodistgirl]

I would like to try a zither. There are many kinds and for blue grass,
there is the hammered dulcimer.
