Just to spark some conversation...for all students-where are you from, what's your age, and what is your current playing ability, i.e.-what are you working on?
I am from Anoka, Minnesota. I am 16. I play in the front line for Minnesota Brass. I am currently working on Etude #3 by Paul Smadbeck.

Well sammy, I first started busting rhymes at the young age of two, in fact the first words that came out my mouth were "hoe! come on there ain't nothin' about it just back up that ass" It was with that that my loving parents thought I had mad rhyme skills and sent me away to learn from some fool back in hood all cradle rock style. Right now I'm working on a duel project with the grand master Stout called "It ain't nothin' but a bunch a hoes up in this bitch, FOO!" Yeah break yourself all cradle rock style foo. The album should come out soon as that fool G-money Stout gets his world together and kicks that bitch of a chronic problem he's got. Don't get me wrong he's a great marimbist, but when it comes to laying something down in the studio all that really gets done is nothin' but some hoes foo.
peace yo.

I'm 16.
I've been playing percussion for a little over a year now. I'm in the pit for my high school band and Phoenix Drum and Bugle Corps.
The last thing I worked on was Etude in C Major, Opus 6 number 10, I believe, not sure of the numbers off the top of my head.
