Organs don't have to be big. I used to play an antique manual pump organ that was smaller than a 61 keyboard. It was always one hell of a work out though, pushing the bellows. Shame that a good number of the voices no longer worked.

But man, that organ was sooo ******** cool.

While I love the sound and the way it plays, I ******** hate playing bass. I love the deep smooth tone, love that it's like the beef instrument. I love playing jazz on it. Love hearing the vibrato. And I how it can over take but then how it's able to blend in with other instruments, but I ******** hate the damn size.

I especially hate the people that make me walk half a mile up a damn hill when I don't have a wheeled case. Ugh. That was horrible. I remember seeing these really snobby violinists laughing at me. That and having a 40 pound keyboard is kind of a pain to lug around.

I'm tiny. I have sticks for arms. I get looks all the time for carrying my bass around town and that stupid joke, "That things bigger than you!" YEAH. I KNOW.


I feel your pain! I play bari sax and, given the lack of muscles in my arms. Or legs. Or anywhere lol, I've been told watching me lug the sax around is quite comical....
Stop laughing and help me dang it!
Also, keyboards are fun, but I LOVE playing on a grand piano. Sounds amazing... heart


March with a contrabass sax and baritone saxes will suddenly feel lighter than a feather.

I play the double bass. It's freakin' huge and I hate carrying it. The most thing I hate is that WE always DON'T get the melody part.

Contrabass saxes are only twenty kilograms. Otherwise known as 1/50th of a ton.

When your dad wants to buy a Mercedes C-class, tell him to buy you a contrabass sax instead. $35000 = EPIC HUEG INSTRUMENT.

That's the great thing about low woodwinds: they can actually be heard and not just felt by the audience and are thus more commonly given melodies.
 
     
YOU SAW MY SIGNATURE.

You now owe me 10 gold.

Feeling it is just as important, listen to the music of Pirates of the Caribbean (love it or hate it, it doesn't matter) if the contra bassoon (a feel it not hear it instrument) were taken out, the song would sound terrible, also the sarusaphone in Graingers original version of childrens march
