Thread Name: Your chosen instrument: Why?
Subject: RE: Your chosen instrument: Why?
Ah, I forgot about learning flute in high school, chosen because I liked it almost as much as oboe, which 2 others beat me out on, spoke up faster--unfortunately for me the school only owned 2 of them and my family didn't have money to buy one on spec. I still pull out my flute (mom scrimped to buy it after she figured I'd likely stick with it) once in a while. Hmm, maybe I will get it out more often...in my spare time.

And djembe which I'm only barely beginning to play, chosen because I LOVE its many sounds and sensations. I was in my late teens the first time I saw people jamming on drums and others dancing to it...WOW, that was a life-changing experience! But I only bought one fairly recently, guess I was chicken.
