Eynsham Red Dec 2021 4:56pm, 28 Dec 2021 8,347 posts	Quote Pin Eynsham Red I’ve just started to learn to play the bass guitar. My daughter has one which she’d not used for ages, and my wife suggested that I might borrow it to learn, as apparently I often hum along to the bass line on a tune when played on the radio. I’ve got an 8 week course book to get me started. I’m very used to standard electric and acoustic guitars, but the fret spacing and neck length will need a good deal of practise to adjust to. It’s a nice light instrument so hopefully won’t cause me any back problems. Nice to have a new challenge.

Lizzie Whizz Dec 2021 7:11pm, 28 Dec 2021 25,973 posts	Quote Pin Lizzie Whizz I had fun playing the melody line of Kate Rusby Christmas songs on the piano yesterday: listened to get the first note, then fiddled around. She sings in some tricky keys! T10 passed his Grade 1 Cornet and enjoyed performing I need to think up some music playlists for him to listen to.
Alice Navidad Dec 2021 7:48pm, 28 Dec 2021 9,202 posts	Quote Pin Alice Navidad A query that maybe someone on here can help with! I play with a symphonic windband and am thinking about digitalising my many pieces of sheet music and using my iPad for rehearsals. At the moment, music is sent out via OneDrive which I download and print off. Do I need an app to store music or will DropBox do? Would a pedal page turner work with DropBox? Any help/advice much appreciated! Thank you.
