Urm... on my recorder... I like to play Christmas Carols, any POTC themes that I can figure out (I don't have a book), LOTR, songs from CATS.
I don't really have a favourite piece, it just depends what mood I'm in.

Hmm... lets see... On guitar, I like playing almost anything, ranging from rock songs to classical guitar pieces. I've been playing a bit of piano again (I used to play for 7 years, stopped, and I'm playing a little again), and the pieces I've been playing are New Born and Sunburn by Muse. I think I might play some classical pieces again, if I have the time to. So basically, I like to play all sorts of different pieces on the guitar and piano, but I think my favorite style is rock. |

But I really liked The Queen Of Sheba too, I had to play it for a concert, so.... ( uh, I play harp )And on recorder/flute...I prefer folk songs...not only because they're usually not that hard and nice to learn, but I'm just completely in love with "She's like the Swallow".... Oh, and I loved "Lament for Gandalf" (for my harp) even though it was somewhat simple.  Eh...an "Karma" by Alicia keys. It's beautiful; singing or harp, I don't care, I just love it. Hmmmm...And I love "Danza de Luzma" by Alredo Orlando Ortiz. South American Harp music rocks.  *starts singing* "She's like the swallow that flies on high..." I love that song! I'm jealous of your harp and flute playing abilities- those are two of my favorite instruments! I play piano. I like classical, especially fast pieces. My teacher's always telling me to slow down. I like slower pieces, too. Some of my favorite classical pieces- Tocatta in D Minor by J. S. Back Milonga del Angel by Astor Piazolla Prelude in B Minor by Chopin Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven Curious Story by Stephen Heller Crimson by Robert Starer Praeludium in E Minor by Mendelssohn. I haven't quite mastered that one. I also like non-classical pieces, especially music from soundtracks (LotR, Pride and Prejudice). I also like playing a version of Danny Boy arranged by Joseph Martin. |

^I haven't heard her version. I don't know who performs the one I've heard, but it's absolutely beautiful- unaccompanied, emotional voice. I actually downloaded it for free online- I can see if I can find the link again. (It's legal. lol) |

Hmm, since I play the Bagpipes, I play mostly traditional Scottish and Irish tunes. However, I do know some patriotic sets....Oh! And I know how to play the theme song from The Last of the Mohicans...which is pretty awesome.

On piano I like playing classical pieces that are fairly simple that still sound really cool... Guitar I like to play different worship songs and pieces by Vivaldi and Pachelbel... anything, really, I love playing my guitar. Violin I don't play very well but playing Celtic or Hebrew tunes is fun, and I love playing Amazing Grace on there. The other instruments are just little things I don't practice much, but on pennywhistle it's Celtic music, panpipes Celtic as well, recorder I just play by ear, and on harmonica I like playing "You Are My Sunshine." And on oboe all I can do is blow on the reed... which doesn't sound all that pretty... yet... |

Fwee! There are so many violinists here! As it is, I've only just joined that elite group once again. Mostly, I've been playing classical music such as Bach and Beethoven. Although, I do have LotR, PotC, and PotO music books that I've yet to get started on. Anyone know where I can find string music for The Beatles music? All that's available is Eleanor Rigby..

I'm learning to play an accompaniment (sp?) to Into the West on my harp. I also love the Gypsy Moth. I can't play anything too complicated yet, since I'm just starting, but I love it. Being an Irish dancer, I'm obsessed with Celtic music, so I play some of that too...

I play bassoon.  My favorites are "Una Furgima Lagrima" (A Secret Tear) by Donzetti, and "Dragons d'Alcala" from Carmen by Bizet. Not many good solos around for us.

@ Aerlinniel: Yay!!! It's sad there aren't more harpists. Not on any of the other forums I'm on either... And yay for another Celtic music fan!! *dances* Will you be my new best friend?
