It is sad to say I do not have any music talent. It has been one of my life-long ambition to learn music. But due to the heavy life of being a form 6 student, I can hardly find the time to learn music. Perhaps, if all goes well, I might register myself to a music school next year. One to two hours per week should be good enough, and will not interfere with my academics, I hope.
The question of the day: Which musical instrument should I learn?
i) Guitar is a favorite among everyone in the globe, which makes it the most common musical instrument. Learning something really common doesn't look very appealing to me. You gotta be unique, y'know what I mean? :p
Pirates of The Carribean OST - He's A Pirate
The good thing about learning guitar is that learning directly from a music school is proved to be unnecessary, and probably a waste of money. So, if I ever had the chance, I will just request some guitar lessons from my Dad :)
ii) Keyboard is possibly my all time target musical instrument. Since listening to the Kingdom Hearts OST, I've been dying to learn keyboard!
Kingdom Hearts OST - Roxas's Theme
Kingdom Hearts OST - Dearly Beloved (Duet)
Beautiful, eh?
iii) If things goes absolutely well, I might actually learn violin. Yes, learning violin is lengthy - I may not be able to master it in the space of one year (if I enrolled into a music school). Still, violin produces one of the most beautiful melodies in the whole world. Personally, if I'm able to master it, I will consider it as a one of the, if not, the greatest achievement in my life.
Pachelbel - Canon In D
Mozart - Symphony No. 40
It doesn't look simple to me! Adds to the complication if I decide to learn violin.
iv) In a rather extreme case, I may want to learn cello.
Mozart - German Dance
Apocalyptica - Hall Of The Mountain King
Hmm...what you think? I won't go half naked, just like the Apocalyptica dude above, of course! :p
v) In a more extreme case, I may sign up for an organ lesson!xD But then again, I don't think there are organs in Brunei, except perhaps in some churches. So the only place where I can learn organ is through churches, which will sure to rouse suspicion as to why I keep walking in and out of a church!
Pirates Of The Carribean OST - Davy Jones's Theme
Can't imagine myself in Davy Jones shoes! xD
If I narrow the list down, I think I might go for either keyboard, violin or cello. By the way, if you are too lazy to watch all those videos, and had a hard time choosing which videos to watch, I would suggest watching the Kingdom Hearts OST - Dearly Beloved (Duet) video, and the Apocalyptica - Hall Of The Mountain King video :)
Now, tell me - Any of you know how to play any musical instrument? :)
