Zhou Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 Personally i feel that the Guzheng and hulusi are my faavorite instruments- the express so much with the music. Running guzhengs stings envokes a feeling of a rver, or a babbling brooke. A hulusi's full tone makes the body cringe with the air of a fishing village. look them up so you can hear them for yourself Quote
1stchair Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 Im sorry hands down piano is the best, and im a violinist, it creates the coolest sound, and the overtones! oh! amazing instrument - so versatile, so gentle and pleasant, so resonant Quote
PraeludiumUndFuge Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 I'm becoming partial to the organ lately. Quote
Guest FPSchubertII Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Guzheng and hulusi I say we smash both kind of instruments. Quote
Zhou Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 that was uncalled for *dirty confused look Quote
Zhou Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 i like organ, it makes you feel scary... I LIKE THAT! Quote
C J. Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Would be the Clarinet family. From a C Clarinet down to the BBb ContraBass. A number of years ago, I heard Schuberts "Arpeggione" Suite done by a Clarinettist and a Pianist (their names excape me for the moment.) P.S: From what I know an Arpeggione - was a guitar like instrument that was played with a bow. Since Schuberts piece was the only one written for it, I tend to believe it went the way of the Glass Harmonica. Quote
C J. Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Jewsharp? I read somewhere that one of Beethoven's early instuctors wrote concerti for the jewsharp and orchestra. You're Thinking of his Counterpoint instructor Albrectsberger (sic). :thumbsup: Quote

There were a few others as well, but Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata is notable because it was the only one that entered the standard repertoire. But it only entered the standard repertoire in versions for cello and piano, or viola and piano... Quote

Hmm, I can imagine the Cello version of Schuberts piece must sound awesome. Quote
