    I can play the cello. I can also sing very badly and out of tune, but that hasn't put my music teacher off making me join the chamber choir.

    I play the cello and bass guitar. I used to sing, but I've lost interest in it.

    My brother can play the guitar very well, and he's related to me. Does that count?

    I can play a banjo with my toes.

    Well, alright, I'm not that talented. But I can play guitar, piano, and am learning the tenor sax.

    Alright I'm kidding, I'm not faster than Yngwie Malmsteen, but I've been practicing with a technique similar to his :D

    Since he isn't a finger tapper, he has to pick up and down while playing instead just a continuous down motion. So I practiced going up and down the fret board using an up and down motion on each string. I usually do that while playing Kashmir by Led Zeppelin and I'm developing the speed like Yngwie! But I'm not there yet :eek: All I could play from Yngwie is the acoustic guitar part from Icarus' Dream Suite and I could do a similar "Dodododododododo DOOT DEEE DOO DOO DOOO" thing from Far Beyond The Sun and some Asian/Indian-type thing I made up which is continuously going as fast as possible and switching from different strings.

    And my biggest musical talent... Playing the guitar like a righty even though I'm a lefty! That's right, I'm a lefty but could only play like a righty.

    I play the clarinet.

    I also play the piano, both classical and jazz, and in the case of jazz, mostly by ear. Actually, I can play virtually any pop tune I'm familiar with by ear, with a little assistance from guitar chord notation.

    I can also whistle, and to some extent sing. Haven't done a karaoke night in a long time though.

    I've also done some of my own composing, with a fairly extensive theory background to back it up...

    I've played the violin for 8 years now, and I'm fairly good at it.

    I'm also probably going to pick up a Fender Stratocaster for my birthday in August to fiddle around with.

    My music-related talent is the ability to rip my CDs and encode them into MP3s for easier listening ;)

    I compose symphonies in my head. I also remix songs and such in my head as well (Last night I did a Scottish Highland version of "Yellow Submarine" without words of course)

    Well, singing is my talent. Mostly classical and opera, but every other kind in the car!!!! I've been singing since I was eight, and it's definitely stuck with me! I'm taking piano lessons this summer, so I can play some. Oh, and I played the flute for a semester... but that didn't work out!
