Skoodle-dee-doo

I LOVE a trumpet. It is like someone bottled sex and put it in brass form. Yes you read me right. I went to a few jazz shows last year and could not ignore the guys who played the trumpet. They would put everything into playing, you could almost hear the trumpet just screaming...like at any second the instrument will just explode. The intensity is just amazing, and I love it. The look on the musicians face while their playing, the way they sway their bodies, or stomp their feet to sync with the beat is just intriguing. le sigh...

Question: What is your favorite musical instrument to listen to and/or play.

  1. Your descripton of the trumpet is DEAD ON!!!! I went to a music festival a few years ago, and there was this band that i cannot remember the name of, but i could NOT STOP STARING at the trumpet player!!!! Rowr. Musicians can be so so sexy! Unfortunately most of my ex's have been musicians, so I am over them. Well, I'll still look, but i don't think i could go out with one again.
    Aaaanyway...hmmmmm..i don't know if i can pick a favourite! Um, I actually LOVE the cello and violin. I bought a cheap one last year with the intention of learning...but it is so very disciplined, and i just don't have the time.The furthest i got was being able to play "twinkle twinkle little star". hehe. Maybe when I'm older and my kid has grown up i will take it up again.
    I quite like piano too! It's such a lovely sound.
    And flutes.
    See! i can't decide!!!!

  3. I was in marching band back in high school, and the boys who played trumpet were always the cutest!
    But, I loved listening to drumline the best.

    Outside of marching band, violins. I adore violins.
