I technically play
several instruments, but the core instruments I play would be the cello
and the piano. I started piano when I was 6 (I'm now 16). I started the
cello 3 years ago, with also a 8 month pause due to cello injuries (and
it just rebroke..cello repairs are so expensive!!) I played clarinet for
3 years during middle school/early high school, and also the penny
whistle (way to go Annalyse!). I love all these different instruments,
some more than others, but they are all unique, fun, and I'll admit
challenging at times!
While I'm definitely not a composer, I love to
play by ear and make stuff up on the piano. Most of my music experience
comes from many opportunities I have been given in my church to serve.
The more opportunities that have opened, the more I have had to
practice, and It has definitely stretched me. So I would encourage you
to embrace your instrument(s) and learn as much as you can about it and
go all out for God's glory. You never know how He might allow you to
impact others through music and how you might get to serve Him! Never
stop pushing yourself!
