When I'm not busy, or playing and learning Go; I like playing piano. Right now, I'm working on Bach's Well Tempered Clavier Book 1 and Chopin's 24 Preludes. I also like to improvise and compose, for fun sometimes.
I also own a guitar, but I'm not very good, at playing it. It just makes my fingers hurt.

I can play guitar and I've been playing it for 5 years. I use to play classical guitar in a conservatory of music, but I also love playing electric guitar

I play mainly guitar. I perform publicly under the nom de plume of George Burl. I am also classically trained in composition, though I often spend time composing music that is off of the classical path.

I play many other instruments peripherally. The piano is mostly a compositional tool for me thought I enjoy improvising jazz and blues and sometimes stumbling my way through Schubert pieces.

To followup on my earlier post... this time I couldn't resist anymore. I'm attempting to learn guitar. My wife wanted an electric guitar to mess with. Its too pretty not to play.

It took me almost a week, but I can now pick the thing up and play a D chord without muting the E string. And of course, I learned the requisite Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. I tend to mess with the amp a bit with that one, to see how many different ways I can make it sound. Yes, I know, I'm a newb-- simple accomplishments amuse me.

I have a couple of very quick pictures of the guitar here: http://blog.lunchisoptional.com/2010/11 ... thday.html
