I know most of you don't know about my 'musical exploits' but I play random saxes, clarinet, flute, piano, bassoon... and fancy something new...
I fancied a cello. But I want something smallish maybe - more inclined to practice. I've always fancied violining but I wouldn't be getting proper lessons and I've heard it's practically impossibly on your own... I could one of my friends to teach me... but it's not the same! Or a piccolo - I already play flute so it's practically automatic.
Or should I get something else?
Input people, input!
Probably going to be an eBay buy - just something cheap and cheerful to have a play with...

I got it for my birthday a few years ago... aah, I should have a play some time. I fancied the drums but that's a no go... for now... |
