My Journey into music 🎶
by passionatePeacock7580

...See more Dear music lover, I hope that you too feel connected to music. I'm a musician myself. You'll be surprised to hear the story of why I became a musician.  I have been fascinated by the song oru murai vandhu parthaya in manichitrathazh, in Malayalam language that released 3 decades ago. Its very mesmerizing the lyrics and music. When I was a child my parents and I were going thru the countryside of tamilnadu and my father was listening to flute music. Upon recognition of the song that was playing I told my mother isn't this the same tune from that manichitrathazh song. She said yes. The song was struck in my mind.  I researched and found that its kundalavarali ragam. I had the fascination to learn to play flute but never got the motivation. And then life moved on even though the fascination of flute music was struck to the back of my mind.  5 years ago, i had a good friend called Sanjay who unfortunately passed away in an accident. Our friends group were really shocked. We had a rememberance meeting for him and during that someone said that we shouldn't have an unfulfilled desire. If we desire something we should fulfill it at the earliest.  That was an eye opener for me and I went and joined music class the very next day. I've been playing flute for the last 5 years now 🙏 I hope to play kundalavarali ragam very soon.

Someone who plays in an orchestra here?

...See more Hii, i'm Frances and i play the flute. I am also a part of an orchestra (mostly strings plus me and two clarinets) and i wanted to ask, what are your favourite little things about playing in an orchestra? Mine is the little clap that our conductor gives us after we finish a concert before she turns to the audience and bows. And one more - the bond formed between musicians who make silly faces at each other during rehearsals (aka me and the drums guy)

Playing an instrument as a hobby
by here4eachother
Last post
 March 27th, 2024
...See more Hey everyone! I play the Double Bass (Classical) as a hobby. I started in 2017 and have been going for lessons with a professional player for the past 6 years. Since last year I've started playing at concerts every once in a while and loved it. I love my Double Bass so much. Like, SO MUCH. It brings me so much joy and gives me hope. I cannot imagine my life without this beautiful instrument. Finding time to practice every day remains an ongoing challenge, especially as an adult with all the responsibilities that come with being one. It's also been great for my mental health, as it is a healthy distraction. I'd LOVE to hear from any of you who play an instrument. Whether you used to play, have managed to keep playing over the years or are looking to take up an instrument as a hobby in the near future, I'd love to hear from all of you!

I am a Pianist : Ask me Anything

 January 28th, 2024
...See more Hey guys i hope everyone's doing well. I am sorry for not being able to post for sometimes due to my break. So a little about me as a musician hehe. I started playing the keyboard(not your desktop keyboard :p ) since i was 6 and moved to piano when i was 10. I started giving Trinity london college of music exams for piano practicals and music theory and completed grade 7 for piano and grade 6 in music theory. I'd be happy to share my knowledge if you ever wanted to know anything about music and of course meet other musicians. keep posting  :) a fun fact of the Piano : When the strings vibrate, they produce sound. On a piano, however, those vibrations are initiated by hammers hitting the strings rather than by plucking or by moving a bow across them. So, the piano also falls into the realm of percussion instruments. ------------------------- taglist  @Aditya006 @AloneGhost @Angelwolf8930 @AnimalLover2006 @communicativePond1728 @DeLeeAh @GwydionRowan @ImpudentIncognito @lovingBraid9917 @PoliteOcean @sadcat13 @softForest4843 @SparkyGizmo @starryskies1236 @Sunisshiningandsoareyou @teenmorgan16 Click HERE [https://www.7cups.com/forum/music/CommunitySpace_2579/MusicDanceAutomatedTaglist_306963/] to be added/removed from the community taglist

...See more Okay so  If you know then skip the next blob, If you don't then read it xD Basically I auditioned for a crazy band thing on Saturday. It was insane, about 400 kids auditioned for my instrument alone. Most of those kids were classically trained and they had like privates and all this insane it was crazy!!! I did my best. Anyway that day I got a notification that I didn't make it in, but I got first alternate, basically if someone can't go, I go.  I'm too lazy to tell people 203938283848483 times. But yk, it's news. So anyway, my director messaged me today, they messed up the scoring. They confused me with another kid. TW caps - YALL I GOT IN!!!!!!! Which is crazy because I came just like off a 6 month break and I'm just me and I barely played last year because of my mental health but I did it. Because I got into all east I might be able to go to all state 😁😁😁😁😁 Tagging everyone : @tinywhisper11 @darkerplaces @lovemymoonflowers @teenmorgan16 @iamaubrey @communitymodiris like idek how to process this yall

Ukelele
by lituratesweets
Last post
 April 23rd, 2023
...See more So I’ve been getting into the ukelele as my school offers me one as an extracurricular. Now I’m not the best with my hands and I can’t tune by ear for some reason, even though I can play piano by ear (confuses me so much) but other then that it’s going okay for someone that doesn’t have a teacher. Ive been trying to learn Worldstar money by Joji,, as it has a sorta repeating pattern and kinda easy chords from what I’ve learned of it so far. i have to use TABS solely because I get upset, frustrated, and distracted when I watch videos of others. the video is mirrored so I have to reverse the action their doing in my mind, plus it will move on assuming you got what it said down instead of pausing for help like I need sometimes. and I’m probably too stubborn for a teacher anyways,, uh,, I’d like to hear other peoples experiences with the ukelele (please share anything you think of that doesn’t break rules. I AM interested and I WILL read it. If not me then others. Love y’all stay safe,, drink water take breaks,,)
