What musical instrument makes you cry?

WUSS!

No seriously... Maybe not cry, but perhaps touches you emotionaly.

For me I find the violin a very emotional instrument. Maybe because of it's almost "crying" sound.

I love the sound of a violin whether it's in Mozart, ELO or Charlie Daniels. It's just a great instrument.

I'll probably try to get my kid to take lessons when I have one. Although I'm afraid I might become one of those obsessed "Mommy Dearest" types.

What instruments do you like to listen to? Harp? Cello?

 

[Lola]

the harp

 

[Red Dawn]

The Clarinet..but only when my Nephew try's to play it

 

[Isla]

Squeezebox...

Actually, I love hearing the piano... songs that have a real piano prominent always get my attention.

Yeah... it's hard to love an instrument after hearing someone try to master it.

Patience, patience, patience.....

My ex-girlfriend would play the skin flute with her teeth... that made me cry.

You know it might be easier if you let your wife have the kids. It would probably hurt a lot less.

I dropped a sax on my foot one time and it brought a tear to my eye.

Missing that woman, are you?



It's not the instrument that send the emotion, it's the musician.

 

[Digobick]

Violin definitely, and the bagpipes playing amazing grace.

And "cry" is such a strong word. "Tearing up" perhaps.

 

[aphex]

Any stringed instrument gets me down deep...

 

[SagaLore]

The accordian.

That's one of those 3 inch instruments.

My wife plays a big one, the Tuba.

The Irish Uilleann pipes are as good or nearly as good (if you're Irish!).

Tuba? Bloody Hell... Do you use her mouth as a spare closet when she is done?

What musical instrument makes you cry?

1. Great ones damaged beyond repair.

2. Good ones being played poorly.

3. Bad ones that can't play in tune, no matter how good the player, especially if sold for an iflated price.

 

[UglyCasanova]

A guitar played with a violin bow.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Most songs that are touching to me are played with the piano. When I'm really down, I play.
