As always it depends on your mood & my first choice would always be the sax but any instrument played by a maestro sounds good and would vote for this one as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI3wIHFQkAk Incidentally if we have any budding musicians following the site, James only reached level 3 on the flute so don't give up

Two instruments: Fiddle and Accordian. But then again I like the Bazouki. |

My wife, Rachel, plays the violin. It sounds wonderful when she is playing. I do like electric guitar as well. |

Violin is my favourite but then over the years I have loved the flute,a good rock drummer and in my dotage I have fallen in love with the Bazouki. |

Shirley many thanks for getting us back on topic & contributing to the music section. Seems the violin or "fiddle" is a popular instrument & top guy at the moment is Andre Rieu Loads of great performances by him on YouTube but this one is just for fun. Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1a0Y4RsyuY |

Oh Poppy sorry I didn't like that one. Fiddle is great, but most violins screech, at least they do to my hearing. Jo |

Jo I agree with your comment but my focus was on the harp & any instrument played with perfection & passion sounds good to me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apdaZfYIJTU |

Hi Jo,i think string instruments sound better if you listen with your eyes closed,i find it distracting if the player has a lot of body movement. Thom |

Nothing better than a solo piano when you hear this piece of music played on it, something about this piece of music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DByMNIqFAq8 |

Excellent Jonny and Debbi. If strings are your bag,they don`t come much better than this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OvsVSWB4TI Thom |

Excellent last two posts  Cannot think of a better way than listening to great music on a dreary day here in England  Looks like the strings have it so far but have we missed percussion? |

Dug out from the loft a classical guitar I bought my wife many years ago. The provenance says, built by Di Giorgio in 1975. Will not bore you with her experience of lessons but she gave it up. So here I am with a restrung instument which still sounds good but without a clue what to do next. Too old (too tight  ) to take lessons any more so any members with experience of how I can get this instrument back into some sort of life
