Okay, it's time to write here. Today I am not going to talk about movies, directors, literature, photography..
I am going to talk about music, musical instruments in particular.
Whole year I was craving for a harmonica, but 4 days ago (or 5 may be?) I've heard like my classmate mentioned she has it. I got her number to make sure she will bring it next day. It is pointless to decribe the following events but OMG HARMONICA IS UHHHHMAZING!!!!!
First of all, this video gave the birth to my passion:
Isn't it cool? harmonica, beatbox, music? It includes everything i like (not everything, but yeah.. u got it! ;) )
Actually, on facebook there are a lot of videos how to play harmonica - so you dont even need a teacher. There are different harmonicas, not by just appearance or by quantity of sounds, but they all have different keys. Some are lower or higher pitched as well.
Why do I like it so bad? Well, it is very easy to play by ear, you don't have to learn any notes, you just play.. You can take it with you everywhere - it is so small (however, there also can be huge harmonicas! lol)
After talking to my classmates, I realized that now I am craving for more musical instruments. Now there is a little chart:
- Most likely I will have it soon: Melodica. Very easy for those, who can play the piano. You just blow and press the keys. Easy breezy. Igor Krutoy has it too ;) So be cool as he is :) By the way, I had a small one when I was little! Oh those good ole times! :)
- Other intrument - Flute. I played something like that when I was in elementary school. However, it sounded ridiculously annoying - I wish i had a nice with a soft sound flute. Also, pan flute can be gifted to me instead of simple flute. It is awesome too.
- The first gran-pri goes to Soprano Sax! It is usually straight and looks like clarinet but this one does not! :) It's just a small and higher pitched sax. First time I've heard about it was when I went to the first band class in my American High School. Mr. Day asked me what do I want to play and I answered without a doubt - saxophone! He brought one, but it was too big for me!:( Then, he asked me if I have money and you have to agree that it's is a kinda weird question but i still answered it positively. And he responded like: " Well then, you can buy a soprano saxophone, it costs around $400 and I will be happy to teach you to play it!". I explained him that $400 is kinda a lot for my family and I can not spend this money on the instrument I can't play yet. What if I won't be able to? So I denied his offer :( How do you think, may be i should've had taken this chance? Please tell me, I am wondering to know your opinion! Then he was persuading me to play trumpet but I dont really like it and it's too easy, you won't wonder anyone by playing that( and im not a pioneer) . So that's how my band class was over, I changed it to Psych class ( and I enjoyed it a lot!!).
- And the second gran pri goes to DRUM SET(KIT)!!
This 'small' thing has been a dream of my life for years!!! I SO want it!!!It's the most wonderful thing ever! Unfortunately, I never tried to play the real one :( But I know someday I will. Also, the bad thing is that it's too big - even for our not so small, but still, apartment.
I played the drum kit a lot on apps on ipod, until my dear ipod was stolen. Also, it felt amazing to play it on Guitar Hero - i still have this warm feeling while remembering myself pretending to be a rock star drummer while playing guitar hero with Rekia and Shawn in Tennessee on the spring break. Such a good memories. It was so fun! And Shawn was very hot too! lol
So this is a short wishlist of instruments I want to have. Of course, it's not all, there are some other ones too. So keep checking my blog for many more posts to come about music, cinematography, photography and just everything else! :)
