I do recitals with my teacher's other students and I do solos for school concerts. I've been playing for about two years. Right now, I'm learning the second and third movement to Beethoven's sonata in C# Minor. I tried out for this modeling agency for summer wear, but I didn't get picked...oh well. -- Posted by tiniestfairy at 1:45 pm on June 16, 2006 I've been in a few plays-- *Scrooge *The First Christmas -- Posted by kitkat at 1:47 pm on June 16, 2006 i am mainly a musician. i play the piano regually in festivals and concerts at school and just a few weeks back played in the parish church for the mayor. i also sing. i've been asked to go to a folk club to sing there though i haven't actually got round to following up the invitation yet. in a few weeks i'm in a school concert. finally i dance twice a week. we have a show every two years in which i do balley, theatre craft, tap and jazz. this coming show i may be singing too but i'm not sure yet. even though i am always performing, i still get scared everytime. how annoying :( -- Posted by skittle13rew at 1:56 pm on June 16, 2006 I'm kinda similar to you.  i have sang for a long time and have acted for a long time.  I have been in two musicals footloose and seussical with my school.  i was nominated for an award in our states tony-like awards program.  Recently i had my recital for singing in which i soloed with an italian aria that i knocked out of the park.  Heres to all u other musicians out there. -- Posted by xo jess ox at 1:57 pm on June 16, 2006 This year will be my fourth year in a choir and the odd time I sing by myself. I plan to audition for my school's musical next year but other than that I don't really do any perfoming. Unless you wanna count choir camp, heh :) -- Posted by penguinpal827 at 2:07 pm on June 16, 2006 This year will be my fourth year playing trumpet. I also act, and I've only been in one play, but I just started. -- Posted by RyGuy at 5:31 pm on June 16, 2006 I've been playing piano for eight years, sax for four years, and bassoon for two years. I also know how to play the violin. -- Posted by randomconspiracy at 8:19 pm on June 16, 2006 I'm a dancer. I do ballet, tap, and jazz and I've been dancing since I was 4, but only competitive since I was 9. [btw I'm 15 now] -- Posted by Jannurst at 2:25 am on June 17, 2006 i can also play the keyboard, and bass guitar but there is one thing i just cant work out how the hell do you play the triangle lol i just cant get it to sound right and its really hard to play   -- Posted by Cerdic at 9:31 pm on June 17, 2006 I do a bit of everything. I've only started acting and my small amount of dancing in the last year though. I have been in two productions, my first "Zesty Slap Dash," was a variety show in which I ended up having a very short speaking part and a song (Monty Python's "Lumberjack Song"). My second performance was a series of skits in a talent show. But other then my theater productions, I am a firm believer that "All the world's a stage." I don't need a reason to break into song/dance/theatrics. I pretty much do whatever comes to mind that I think would be fun (much to the amusment of others and more importantly myself). I have been playing instruments for eight years (trumpet and baritone). I have been singing in public for about seven months and (break) dancing for about six. I don't really know how to dance but the little break dancing I know is fun so I do it whenever the mood strikes. -- Posted by happygoluckyelf at 12:07 pm on June 19, 2006 I am an actress. I live for those moments on stage. I have been in 6 school plays, and have loved every one of them. I also really love dancing and I used to take lessons, but I stopped quite some years ago, but I still enjoy doing it, mostly when I'm in my room listening to music and nobody's looking. I'm a closet singer, not literally. I mean I sing in the shower and when I'm driving my car. I have no musical talent though.  My secret ambition is to be on Broadway, though that's probably one of those dreams that won't come true. -- Posted by ashley oren at 12:13 pm on June 20, 2006 i am an actor for newton highschool i was currently in Harvey as The maid i was in Fiddler on The Roof for the fal musical as Yente and i was in 12 angry jurors for teh winer play ...i played bell in Beauty and the Beast for Crwon up Town for inspiring future drama members and i play bass guitar and clarintt and electric guitar clarinet piano and trumpet... -- Posted by dramanerd1 at 6:16 pm on June 21, 2006 i have been singing my entire life. church chior, school chior, everything i can get into, and sometimes it seems like i act everyday of my life, school drama and local theaters everything. i love it!! -- Posted by crabigailrose at 2:49 pm on June 22, 2006 I am on the colorguard, which is a mixture of dance and spinning a flag, sabre and rifle. During marching season we help the band with GE (general effect) score and are basically the "pretty" part of the show, giving people something to watch besides drill. During winter season we perform in gyms to recorded music. I've been on the guard for 3 years (my freshmen year I marched flute) I've also played flute for almost 9 years. -- Posted by katyduck at 2:48 am on June 24, 2006 Music's my thing, although I lack the confidence to go anywhere with it. I've been playing the flute for 7 years but am only at Grade 7, which isn't really all that much of an achievement. I suppose I should be at Grade 8 by now. That would be the normal sort of a pace to go at. I play the flute in the local church youth ensemble (which has extended in numbers so dramatically from the mere 10 or us 4 years ago to a full-scale orchestra). I play in the school orchestra and band, and have had to play in numerous flute quartets at concerts throughout the years. I also occasionally get roped into doing other things in other parishes, like playing in Midnight Masses in convents and stuff. I'm miles better at the piano than I am at the flute. I'm Grade 8 now, and have been played for 4 years. I have a real love for the piano and would quite happily sit there for hours on end twiddling away. It's so beautiful. My piano teacher tells people that I am her best pupil =) I have a really gorgeous piano that I saved up for with all my money from my part-time job and bought 2nd hand. It's mine for life now, and I'm absolutely in love with it. She's beautiful. I used to play classical guitar but I gave that up. I wasn't playing very long but got up to about Grade 4 standard, although never did any exams. My guitar teacher said he was the best pupil he'd ever taught, but I hated the damn thing. Too sore for my wee wrists. When I was little the only things I got the chance to play were tin whistle and recorder, which hardly require too much expertise. I played descant and treble recorder, but never the tenor. I used to sing a little, just in school choirs and stuff, but I hate singing. I refuse to sing for my teachers when we're doing aural tests, and almost always fuck it up in the music exams. I was only in the choir because the head of music forced me to go. As soon as she left, I ran far far away. It was fun but I had no confidence with singing. I studied music to GCSE but dropped it soon after. I got first in my school but always felt that I was shite in comparison to everyone else and I really didn't like it. Keep getting reprimanded for not doing it to A-level when I go for piano accompaniments but I don't regret it in the slightest. Music was mildly torturous for me so I'm glad the formal lessons are behind me. -- Posted by anglophile at 8:55 am on June 24, 2006 I play the violin and perform with my orchestra. I'm also an actor and do some shows. My main performance is as an acrobat/aerial artisti. I perform at the my circus on spanish web, silks, trapeze and mini tramp. -- Posted by GdFtherOFCOWS at 1:53 pm on June 24, 2006 I use to play the Baritone.  I did for 4 years.  It was awesome. But my main preforming art of choice is Magic!   *flash  flash* I have been doing magic for over 7 years.  From sponge balls to cards, from ropes to cups.  I don't preform at big places, mostly just for my friends.  I have been hired a few times to work at parties, corporate meetings and the like. -- Posted by ipso facto at 9:35 am on June 26, 2006 Stand Up comedy for me. Talent shows, open mics, etc. Three years, and I'm no Bill Hicks, but I'm apt. I also play synth in an out of work band. But ya. -- Posted by carly3592 at 11:51 am on June 30, 2006 I'm in school and community plays.  I've been in... The Music Man Jr. Once on This Island Jr. Annie Jr. Aladdin Jr. Hee Haw Hayride and I'm gonna be in Guys and Dolls Jr. this summer I also play the euphonium, valve trombone, piano, and I'm starting to take guitar lessons... -- Posted by exparrot at 1:25 pm on June 30, 2006 I act, sing, and I'm in a band.  I've been singing since I was six but I never really took it seriously until I was 11.  Now I want to go to college for it.  It's my dream to be on Broadway. ^_^ -- Posted by bethinthebox at 3:59 pm on July 3, 2006 I have been playing trombone for almost five years. I just play in school bands, but I try to do extra things on the side when they come up (Solo and Ensemble Festivals, honor bands -- if I can get in, that is, other stuff). I thought about joining a community band for people ages 10+, but I still have not joined yet. In high school, I will be in three bands: Marching band, Jazz band, and Symphonic Winds. Trombone is something I am very interested in, and I hope I will have some type of job involving it when I get older. But, I know that probably won't happen, but whatever. I also play the electric bass. I started it at the beginning of the past school year because I met some girls that were interested in starting a band and I thought it would be cool to be in a rock band or something, and I had kind of wanted to play either bass or electric guitar, so I started playing it. However, we never did start that band, but I still play. I did play tenor saxophone a while ago. Not in any band, but I taught myself. However, I don't play it currently because I don't really have a tenor sax to practice on now. I want to play it, though. -- Posted by Pickles at 5:17 pm on July 7, 2006 I act. And sometimes sing. And dance as best as I possibly can. I also play the flute, which I've been playing for ehh.... 4 years. Yep. =] -- Posted by Nappylicious at 8:13 pm on July 11, 2006 I used to play the flute, piano and the baritone horn but i stopped last year. any music i make now is usually synthesized. I love to act and was in my first play this year. I got the role of being a possesed witch wax figure which was cool. it was a no line part just movements and staying still for a long time but i acted the hell outta that part. Im sure to get an upgrade next year. My most favorite is dancing. Ive been dancing since i was 6 and i do tap, jazz, ballet, pointe, modern(horton), lyrical, african/ethnic, hiphop, and im learning breakdance now. If only i could sing i would be a one woman show! -- Posted by slightlystoopid at 8:19 am on July 12, 2006 i was in a drum group for about 5 years and we traveled all around Alaska to native villages and taught them how to play drums. I've been performing with my band for years now and have played the drums, bass, guitar, and slide guitar with them. -- Posted by Litl star Imagine at 3:41 pm on July 13, 2006 Im actress and a singer. Iv been acting since i was six years old in my first play, i then did 3 plays a year one of them was a pantomime. When i turned 13 i realised that i had a singing voice and then did musicals. I got the main part each time. Been in three westend plays and recently been doing t.v and film. I auditioned for wendy in the peter pan film but rachel hurd wood got it lol, i did a workshop with her and she is amazing. I auditioned for the part off luna lovegood in the harry potter film and got a screen test with dan radcliffe in leavesden studios. He is amazing. Unfortunly i didnt receieve the part though. -- Posted by ruebunny3 at 10:12 pm on July 13, 2006 [crolor=indigo] I'm a singer & an actress, and I like to participate in the school musicals and plays. Yeah, nothing really amazing, I know lol :)   -- Posted by fadewake at 1:30 am on July 16, 2006 I'm a musician and I've done some acting as well, not much. I play flute, and have done several honor bands over the years. I used to play piano around age five, but never took lessons so I never thrived, but I still play and do composition. Not much of a prodigy, but I think I'm pretty damn good. And to carly3592, our school did Guys and Dolls and I played in the pit orchestra. I really liked it, it was quite hilarious and odd. Hope you have fun with that. Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7  Next
