every (well almost) song that we listen to has some sort of musical instrument along with the vocals whether it be guitar (acoustic or electric), piano, or whatever. what type of instrument do you like to listen to? for me, i have to say i love piano (especially in classical music) but i also like the clarinet (i am a huge jazz lover) but i also like salsa music so i would have to say drums are a large part of that. what about you?

the keyboard and electric guitar are my favourite instruments since ethey both give out a wide range of sounds which go really well with my favourite genres of music rock and metal.

My favorite is the guitar. Not only is it cheaper but you can take it almost everywhere. You can do away with almost all the instruments but just the guitar and you can still appreciate the music. You can even play it when you lying down. So its more convenient, easy to maintain and cheaper too. Cheers!

hammered dulcimer yes they have beautifull and distinctive sound...i remember hearing hammered dulcimer playing the intro song on crocketts victory garden. the first one i'd seen up close,was in indiana,at fiddler's gathering,the dlcimer player was sitting on a stump and hemmering some enchanting sounds. i hear they're a bear to tune. you did not put down a jews herp,my grand dad use to play one. i think i must have false teeth. when you use to play it first time,invariably the snap bar will snap against your teeth.

Ever since my sister started to play the piano, I hated the noise of that thing so much that I told her that if she didn't stop playing, I would break that "hunk of junk". As time passed, I got so used to listening to it that I started to like it and enjoy it. It was not long until I started going to music lessons and learn the piano seriously.

When it comes to listen to music, my favourite sounds are the ones produced by string instruments. For example, piano, guitar, violin, etc. For some reason the sounds produced by strings always go deeper on me, and I enjoy them more than other instruments.

i love to listen to the flute. it has a deep spiritual feel to it. its the instrument of god himself and when a flute plays the winds of harmony directly touch your soul.

I have to go along with you and give several different answers. I love the piano but I also like the drums and some of the different beats that are given in the different types of music. I like a wide variety of music and drums play such an important part in most of it. I also like the flute and the harp in softer kinds of music and the lightness of both.

I would have to say the piano. Music always sounds amazing and live when accompanied by the piano. I have always wanted to play the piano but I never learned how. I also think Saxaphones can be really cool and jazzy. But my over all favorite is the good old fashioned piano and of course key boards are also good as well.

Some time ago I bought an electronic keyboard and I know that they have been in existence for a long time now but this is the first time I've experienced an electronic keyboard and I can tell you, I'm hooked for life!. I have been learning how to play for a couple of months now and I get so much pleasure from it. I'm learning how to play a couple of classical pieces like Fur Elise which was composed by Beathoven or was it Mozart! I don't remember but the keyboard is good like this as it teaches you how to play different kinds of music. Anyway, I practise every few days and it started from having a slight interest to now taking it up as a serious hobby! I love jazz music too by the way and would love to learn how to play some famous jazz music on the piano! Andrew

I love drums. In my school days, I used to tap my desk with my finger tips...just to get the feeling as if i am beating drums. Lolz. Some day I would like to buy one, but seems to be quite expensive.

I really love playing my guitar (acoustic one). I had this passion of learning music right from my early age and my family was very supportive. So i had this unknown likeing for guitar at the beginning but later it turned out to be a part of my life. I had been a guitarist in my college days but now, after starting to work i don't find much time to spend with my guitar. i hardly play it twice a month.
