Great question..

I play the trumpet..it wasn't my first choice (I wanted to play the baritone horn), but I do like it a lot. I specifically like it because it's not very common at my school to find female trumpet players, so it makes me stand out a little more. If I could do it over again, though, I would probably pick saxophone or clarinet.

I've actually set a goal of trying every instrument before I graduate high school (in 2009), but so far I've only gotten lessons on the flute and baritone.

I played trumpet but i wish i had have played percussion

Why not pick up the sax now. Most sax players I know play clarinet as well and vice versa.

Well, in elementary school, I played the clarinet and the flute, but in middle and high school, I played the violin in the orchestra and loved it!

I'm a percussionist in my school's band. I'm the best mallet player they've seen since my section leader graduated my freshman year. Now I'm a junior and section leader of the Front Ensemble. I've been in band since the 6th grade and back then I was trying out for the sax. I didn't have the lung capacity for the instrument. I had experience with the piano so I decided the go out for the mallets and ever since, been in the percussion section though since 6th grade, I've broaden my experience with almost every instrument in the section.
Hope This Helped. :-)

I play the flute and I started guitar. I regret that I didn't learned piano.

i play the clarinet but i also wish i played another instrument, like the sax.
