Who plays something?

Is there an English translation to that instrument, nomenclature? =p

88 keys makes me wanna say it's a Kyoto, but I believe that's Japanese. It's stringed, not keyed, anyway...Same with all the Chinese Harps and Mandolins I can think of. wth has 88 keys besides a Piano or harpsichord anyway? 0.o

Piano, viola.

That's a lot of Kanji's (what are kanji's called in Chinese, btw? Never cared to learn the languge...Love the history, but I hate the commies and how they tried to erase that history...And for invading poor, innocent Tibet. ;_ for a simple word like "Piano". Though, in all fairness, "piano" is actually the compressed form of its full name, "Pianoforte", which is derived from its original name in Italian which is a four-word long name that means "Harpsichord with soft and loud" (Piano = Soft, Forte = Loud, if you know your musical Nomenclature [there's that word! xD ]).

Perhaps that is what all the characters are for. They all mean "Harpsichord with Soft and Loud"? =p

What is Harpsichord in Italian, btw? I should look that up to get the original name of the piano... Aha! "Clavicembalo [or gravicembalo] col piano e forte". Hooray for Wikipedia! LoL

'Kanji' is called 'Hanzi' in Chinese
Mandarin pronounciation: "hahn zhuh"
Cantonese pronounciation: "hon jee"

On-topic: I played Bass clarinet at school for about 1-2 years. I wouldn't say I rocked at it but, I guess I was pretty good ^.^ lmao bass is easy xP (well at least from my experience it was :lol

Hey, I'm new here... and I saw this thread and decided to make this the place for my first post.

Music is one of my greatest loves in life.

I play:

Electric, Acoustic, and Bass Guitars.
Piano
Trumpet
Kit-Drums
And the Flute (I haven't picked it up in years though...)

Here's my band, if anyone cares.
