I have been playing an instrument ever since i was in grade school. I loved playing the trumpet because it was loud, and just felt right. I played the trumpet up until my 8t grade year, when i switched over to the euphonium.
The euphonium, is also know as a baritone. This instrument is played exactly like a trumpet, however the mouth piece is much larger making it a tad bit easier to play. It's shaped like a tuba, yet isn't that heavy. All throughout high school I played this instrument. Yet, my time with the euphonium came to an end as well.
After high school was over, i stopped playing concert music completely. However, my time and experiences had not been forgotten. My musical career is not over. I am still playing but just on a different instrument, along with a different genre of music.
Now i've been experimenting with the guitar, bass, and even a little bit of drums. My band and I do not perform a lot any more, however i still play by myself.
The time I spent in the concert band has made my guitar playing even easier. Whenever I learn new things about the guitar, everything just seems to connect a little bit better. Studying scales and arrangements in the concert band, made my mind open and realise that everything musical works in the same way. I just hope to continue and learn all that is to be known about music.
