Quote from: Latios212 on September 09, 2016, 06:41:05 PMBeing able to pick things up quickly. I'm not the best at sight reading, or perfecting a piece, but I can pull off a semi-presentable performance of something relatively quickly.

Piano: Probably my ability to compose for the piano. I can never eliminate all the mistakes from pieces I practice, I'm still not that good at improvising (though I did improvise some ragtime at one point), I can't even play all my transcriptions at full speed...(granted, some of them get crazy fast in all senses of the phrase...)

Voice: On the other hand, I'm great at improvising music I sing. My default mode is rather classical or pop-like, but I can improvise jazz, ragtime, rock, heavy metal, and fantasias on tunes I already know (either composed by others or by myself). I have a pretty big vocal range, which helps. (I'm losing my highest range, though, but at least I can go below low C now! ...Yes, I'm a female with a low singing voice.)

The instruments ending with "clarinet": Played clarinet, then bass clarinet in school bands, but now I haven't played them for years. Whatever my best quality on either instrument was, it wasn't my tone--I kept squeaking.

Improvisation, and as a corollary composition, but I rarely write for the piano, using it as a means to an end.
Try to do everything; you're bound to succeed with at least one.

My sight reading is pretty good, since I do it quite a bit. Better question, though; what is the WORST thing about everyone's playing?

My preferred instrument is the jew's harp/jaw harp. I will boing boing boing until the day I die.

I'd say that my best quality is my ability to destroy it. Invite me over, I can show you.

What I'm best at on the piano? Good question. Maybe composing stuff?


I'm not so good at playing fast passages.

DekuTrombonist (and maybe Sebastian) is the only person off the top of my head with consistently great quality that I enjoy playing as it's written and adding my own embellishments rather than having to sift through a bunch of gross choices the arranger made

Keep it simple stupid

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.
