I was just wondering whether you guys play instruments besides piano. I play piano and viola.

I played saxophone for about 15 years before I layed a finger on piano (which was just over a year ago).  So, you can say that piano definitely isn't my specialty.

But now piano is actually my main instrument, since I'm playing it much more frequently.

Piano is my 'specialty' (I can play it decently enough).  lol, my dog scratches his ears furiously when I play the violin.  =)

Piano since I was 4 and saxaophone since 8th grade.  Alsto until grade 12 where I switched to Baritone saxophone.  That counts as piano and two others, right?
