I also sing tenor, with a range from low Ab to high C (on good days - on bad days my range is only to a Bb).

How high is that high C? High C above the staff for tenors (C in the staff for sopranos?).

My main instrument is saxophone, played for around 6 years now. I play alto the most, though I've had experience playing tenor in jazz band one year, baritone in band for two years, and soprano for solos. Currently, I play strictly alto in our schools jazz band.

I also play french horn (7-8 months), trumpet (1 year, though I really need to work on it). I play french horn during concert season at my high school.

I am a percussionist as well, and play snare drum during marching band, can play bass drum as well. Also, I'm an intermediate mallet percussionist.

Piano-horrible at it/4years

Clarinet-pretty good/3 years

violin-okay/3 months

saxophone-okay/4 months

I play the violin and saxophone by ear. I can't take lessons with them. The piano, I've taken for 4 years and I still can't play. I'd say I play the clarinet the best out of any of them. My favorite instrument is the violin though. :blush:

Who played a real Harpsichord? I want to know, besides me, if this instrument exist in the outer world.

My university has one. Only a few people are allowed to touch it, though. The strings break far too often for any real use, but it has been used in performances.

I want a bassoon.

Easy enough, if you have between 4,000 and 32,000 dollars :thumbsup:

I just bought a brand new Fox Rendard 220 Artist Model, amazing instrument, set me back 7,000 that I really need for college, lol.

You're cracked... (newfie terminology for COMPLETELY INSANE) I'd be willing to go $4,000 but my parents would yell at me for asking.

Eh, it's for a good cause. I needed a good bassoon, so might as well get a good one.

I play the bassoon :) It's cool!

Mine's worth 4500 pounds, I don't know how many dollars that is...

I also play piano (grade 8) and violin (grade 7 exam next week argh!)

Mine's worth £8,048.75 from the kind people at Howarths. I have a Moosmann 200, though I am thinking of getting (in about 5 years...) a custom built one direct from Moosmann.

General rule with GBP to USD is to double it, and it's close enough...
