WHAT instrument should i learn... for the first time? any ideas?

Question

well i have learnt the piano years back when i was about 8-12

but i quit... which is a shame

i have a piano in my house and i just feel to learn a new insturment to keep myself busy this year...

any ideas of a good one to learn thats simple enough and is cool lol

Answer 1

If you don't want to do piano, then the Recorder in C is an easy instrument. It takes a little breath control but if you read music it is fairly easy compared to something like violin.

Answer 2

Drums,play the drums. I don't care what anyone says its one of the most natural (and oldest) instruments to learn to pick up and play. Second only to the voice I would definately go with drums. As long as you have two hands you can always practice so there's no excuse not to try. Piano is cool...also a percussion instrument, charming but I prefer the playing the drumkit. Much easier to gravitate toward. You could teach someone a beat to a song before they could learn the same song on another instrument.

Answer 3

  i think  keyboards  are the easiest   to understand and play  over the  years i've tried just about  everything

Answer 4

yeh piano is cool or bass guitar :) thats what i want to do anyway either of those,but yeh if you have a piano learn it i would.

Answer 5

guitar, drums, or bass

Answer 6

Guitar is the coolest!

Answer 7

Violin

Answer 8

Triangle, can't get cooler than that

Answer 9

Harp!!! lol, it's expensive but I do it. Me and my friends play flute, it's really fun and people at school actually think we're cool because we play it!

Answer 10

saxophone! it's also somewhat similar to clarinet, if you ever wanted to learn another wind instrument.

Answer 11

I would recommend that you go with piano, you already have one.  If you're dead set against starting that again, then I would recommend learning how to play saxophone.  It's by far the easiest instrument that I have ever learned how to play.  Plus, it's awesome to play, sounds cool.

Make sure that you get a teacher, or someone that can tell you when you're doing something wrong, you the longer you go on playing something wrong, or using bad technique, the harder it will be to change when you finally find out that something's wrong.

You need to think about what made you quit playing piano, and then consider what your reasons are for wanting to learn something now, after all of this time.  Just to make sure that you don't have a repeat of it.  It's not always fun, but, in the end, it will be very rewarding knowing that you can play a musical instrument.

Good luck, and happy playing!

Answer 12
