Did you play an instrument in school? If so, which one and for how long?
Erin #1:
Haha, which instrument didn't I play. I played keyboard, oboe, trombone, percussion, violin, flute. Keyboard I played from age 6 to age 15. Oboe a year. Trombone a year. Percussion age 11 to age 15. Violin a year. Flute two years.
Erin #2:
I played saxophone for 3 years and violin for a year. My school was very poor and cancelled many programs, which is why the violin was only played for a year. I've considered seeing if I could take lessons again.
Erin #3:
Not in school, but I took piano lessons from about age 5 (?) through 12.
Erin #4:
No
Erin #5 (Me):
I played the flute in junior high. I’m not sure if I chose it because my sister had played it or because it seemed like a feminine instrument to my hormone-laden brain. It didn’t last long, barely a full school year, and I never really learned to read music like the other kids. Can you lip sync flute playing? Because I’m pretty sure that is what I did.
