I can play a haunting tune on a cello.

What if we had guitar and violin people do Devil Went Down to Georgia?
it would exclude everyone else who plays an instrument.

The devil went down in Georgia, he was lookin' for a soul to steal...
Anywho, I can play the piano, but my piano is electronic, so I've got a crapload of tunes on it. If you need organs, piano, or synths, I can do that. Or telephones  :cookieMonster:  I also have harp and 2 epic string tones, but the string tones would probably
exclude everyone else who plays an instrument.

At least I'm putting up some song ideas.

If you wanna rant about my song ideas, put up some of your own first.

We'll I'm not ranting, so to speak. But unless I have lettered sheet music, not the notes but letters, I won't be able to understand it. I might be able the play some of it by ear, tho... That's how I learned part of the Light Sailer from TRON and the beginning of the Indiana Jones theme  :cookieMonster:

The hardest part of doing this is to find a piece of music that everyone can play, but isn't so easy as is to sound like a symphony of 3rd graders.

Requiem for a Dream GOGOGO. I learned to play a simplified version of that recently. It's freakin easy hard. But at least I remembered the simplified version of it on one day, the full version will come another time. Hopefully it won't take me 7 months to master ._.

Would the Final Countdown include all instruments?

I can play jingle bells
i think that's what it is :o

Does it go:
 Dashing through the snow, on a one-horse open sleigh, over the fields we go, laughing all the way!
 Bells on bobsled ring, making spirits bright, oh! What fun it is to sing a sleighing song tonight! Oh!
 Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! Oh what fun it is to ride on a one-horse open sleigh, hey! (repeat)
Like dat? Or the parody version?

Hello all, I was practicing violin when I had a great idea. Getting everybody in the community to record one part of a piece and than putting it all together to make the blockland symphony orchestra. We could pick a piece based on what instruments people know and pick a metronome speed to keep us all in time. Then we'll edit all the parts together. If you do play an instrument, speak up! Obviously, we don't want any ijits who suck ass at it, so if all you can play is "Heart and Soul" please don't bother posting :P

Musicians:
-Comcombordod (violin)
-Freeze (clarinet, sort of?)
-BobSevenSevens (violin brother :D)
-Treynolds (viola - difference from a violin? they burn longer :D)
-Kevdude (trombone)
-Ector (bass clarinet)
-Monocle (piano)

ALSO:
We will record these things separately and edit together, if that wasn't clear. As noted before, we'll pick a metronome marking to keep us in time.
I can do violin, or kazoo, or piano.

Also I can do this cool thing with my hands that makes notes.

Also a viola is a violin with a college education.

(viola - difference from a violin? they burn longer :D)
Viola- difference from a violin? C string.
Difference from a cello? Lack of TESTOSTERONE.
