True, but when you do hear  well plyed oboe, its really something else.  I have this CD from  Vienna thats all chamber ensembles and I had a heated argument with my mother about whether the melody was played by an oboe or some unnown instrument.  It turned out to be an oboe, but you could have fooled me.  Didn't sound anything like what I had to suffer through in High school band.

i agree. Cello is nicest. Then probably saxophone of clarinet.
I detest violins as solo instruments - in orchestras they are ok. Not nice solo instruments to listen to though...

harp and organ.  i play neither.  but, it's fun to just pretend.  i started learning how to play the pedals about 6 years ago.  now, i have to start again.  i was getting good at skipping notes on the pedals instead of having to go chromatically without looking.

just thought of something:  can you have more than one favourite instrusment.  I mean when you think of the meaning of the word favourite it means the one you favour over all others.

Sorry, I'm punchy today

This would render "My Favorite Things" moot, amongst other things, like the list of Favorites you probably keep of bookmarked Web pages.

Many people lack the ability to have just one "favorite" anything. I am one of those people.

Tenor recorder is okay, as well as Alto. Soprano...not so much. I feel sorry for any music teacher who has to put up with 25 soprano recorders playing at once Wink.


The cello is one of my favourite instruments as well as the clarinet. Both have fairly low ranges. The violin, flute etc. sound too squeaky and shrill.

I am like that, I probalby ought to decide which instrument I want to take up definitely if I want a performing career, but maybe I like being able to do so many things too much. after all, rostropovitch played the piano extremely well, and it's always good to have an extensive general knowledge for being a conductor, who knows...

is it a theremin in Messiaen's Turangalila symphony? they called it ondes martenot on the radio broadcast i have about it, but it sounds pretty much the same as the thing Bill Bailey plays...

In the Turangalîla Symphonie, it is an ondes martenot. It has a different sound than a theremin, which can be found in Miklós Rózsa's Spellbound Concerto. The theremin doesn't have as wide a range of sounds avaiable as the ondes martenot and it is harder to achieve fixed pitches. The ondes martenot is sometimes used instead of a theremin in some pieces because the theremin is so difficult to play, much like Bohuslav Martinú's Fantasie. One more thing. The ondes martenot is played with touch, whereas the theremin isn't.

If you are interested, listen to GFF Radio this Friday at 10 PM eastern time. A piece will be featured with the ondes martenot, and, directly after, a piece with the theremin will be featured. It will be easy to hear the difference in sounds.
