Re: Instruments?
I'd have to agree. It seems like on scioly, the viola is more popular then the violin

Re: Instruments?
It is actually very weird. Outside of music events, I've met like three viola players. And then at camp for a leadership training, four of six people in my tent played viola. And as far as scioly goes, the string players on the team are all viola players (or ex-cellists, but we outnumber them!)

Re: Instruments?
Violin, flute, piano, and currently attempting to learn guitar.
I have a friend who can play, no kidding, fourteen different instruments well. He's fourteen...did he learn one instrument a year or something?

Re: Instruments?
let's see... i used to play clarinet but I had the worst music teacher during elementary school so I expected the music program to be even worse...
now, I play piano... yeah, typical asian stereotype

I go to school at Cerro Villa MS. A neighboring school of El Rancho Charter, a once dominating science olympiad team. Rebecca Black goes to El Rancho. It's Friday everyday there.

Re: Instruments?
(Here comes yet ANOTHER typical Asian stereotype.....) I play violin and piano, but I'm probably just an intermediate piano player right now. I also have a little difficulty reading the bass clef, although I can sight-read the treble clef super fast, seeing as I play violin. My left hand also isn't that great when I play piano, so I prefer pieces that heavily feature the right hand.

When learning songs, I generally just ignore the left hand for a while and just learn the right hand. I know that's bad, and I should get used to reading both at the same time, but it gets frustrating when I have to play ridiculously slow, and reading two different clefs at the same time is still too hard for me.
