Introduce Yourselves to the Guild

[pitangawang]

Hello ^.^
I'm Faith, but you guys can call me Fid or Fin...

I am a total marching band geek, but sadly my university doesn't have that much of a music program T^T
I'm a freshman in college, but still look like an eighth grader....

I play violin, clarinet and piano...
I'm learning viola...
I used to play bass clarinet, mallot percussion and concert euphonium.
Oh, I used to be in choir...

Sadly, I'm a Biology and Psychology major =-=  

[Terra of the Lilies]

Hellooooo! Just call me Terra. I'm a sophomore in high school, and I've been playing saxophone for almost seven years, oboe for almost one year, and english horn...a couple months, total. I like marching band, but I love the music we play for concert band. I'm listening to Lux Aurumque right now (by Eric Whitacre), and it's so nice. :]

Other things, other things...I'll be first chair oboe this year (out of two xd ), I'm in the musical pit for my school's production of Cinderella, which has murdered the inside of my lips, due to braces. As for future stuff...I might go into music in the future, I'm not sure. I've still got awhile to decide...if I do want to go into music, there's an Arts and Communications academy at my school, so I can audition for the advanced musical studies if I want to.

 

[Dainty Doe]

Hey, I'm Grace and in middle school (no fancy name like freshmen for sophomore gonk . I rather you call me Panda or something of that nature related to my screen name; thank you.

I play the viola, alto & tenor saxophone whee . I taught my self the violin I believe last summer. I'm gonna save up to buy one heart . I've been playing the viola for four years and the saxophones for about one. And I'm already in our schools Jazz band (oh so special). I'm going to hate marching band next year, but I'll never give up playing!~

I don't want to sound like I'm bragging but I'm just gonna add I'm first chair (out of three violas) emo so I don't feel so accomplished just yet. I have made all-county though! (A contest to see who is the best in each county). I'm trying out on saxophone next Tuesday, so cross your fingers scream !!

Other than that, I love to draw and such. I recently got a tablet but the pen doesn't work (kill me), so I guess I'll have to call them out on that one. I guess that's what I get for paying around $60 xd . Anyway, I sketch and paint, stuff like that. I'm fascinated by the human body and wish to find a career in the medical field. ^^

[Lady_Hawkmoon93]

Hello, I am Hawkmoon. I've played in ensembles for about 8 years, mostly alto sax and tenor sax, but also some piano and handbells. I am one of those odd sax players who prefers playing classical and ensemble music rather than jazz, plus, I just have a soft spot for classical music smile  

[Snicketfile2014]

HI! im obviously new to the guild, but my name is Sam. Im in my high school orchestra, and i play 2nd violin. uhhhhh oh im on the verge of playing the guitar and keyboard! YA!  

[LinkFreakXP]

Hia im Skylar^.^
My primary insterment is Flute
I heart my flute
im also a sophmore play in wind ensamble, pep band, and im a ( 3 year )marching band geek 4laugh  

[mitsuki5561]

I feel so inferior. Grrr... I wish I was introduced to music earlier. Anyway, My primary instruments are voice and violin. Voice I haven't had a day of training in my life for it but I guess I just seem to have a talent. For violin I have almost been playing a year. (What do you mean almost? Don't you mean only? - I mean almost.)

I've taken a liking to Bach and Vivaldi and hope to actually learn one of Vivaldi's songs. (I already play three minuets by Bach.)

I also dabble with piano, guitar, and trumpet. The only reason why I play trumpet is because there is no orchestra in my school. Only a Symphonic or Jazz Band. I'm not in a specific chair for trumpet because in this class there are no chairs assigned. We just sit in our section.

I'm also a beginning songwriter. So far I've written two complete songs (with lyrics) and three more sets of lyrics. I usually write with guitar because I find it easier, but next time I hope to write a new song with several parts (for guitar, violin, piano, and voice).

I also participate in musical theatre even if it's a minority. (I'm actaully a performer on stage and not in the pit because my school doesn't have one.)I enjoy the opera La Traviata and the musical Wicked.  

[L8-4-LIFE]

i play bass clarinet and clarinet. I'm part of my school band  

[Ashokan Farewell]

Hi, I'm Ash. My main instrument is Bassoon but I play piccolo and flute very well too. I also play a little oboe and a bit of clarinet. I make double reeds. I am good for tips on teaching techniques and theory/practical musicianship. A couple of years ago, I spent a year as an apprentice woodwind repair tech in a brass and woodwind refurbishment shop so I can answer a lot of questions people might have about broken wind instruments, how wind instruments work, and how repairs are done.  

[britty808]

Hello! I just joined the guild today! ^.^ (or...like 2 minutes ago...) I play a trigger trombone, and I play in the school band, and an extra special Jazz band! ^.^ We have a concert tomorrow! I'm thinking of learning how to play the clarinet, trumpet, and violin in the future! 4laugh  

[Feyrbrande]
