  11. It was not my favourite musical instrument in Junior School, but it was the only one I was allowed to play : on the assumption that I would cause the least trouble with it. Happy TT Betsy

  13. Hey! What gives? I noticed that there wasn't a kid playing the piano! If you're going to have a real band you need someone on the piano. So sad...

  15. It would of had to of been my favorite choice too because it was the only one I could play. I would grab it as fast as I could before anyone else got it. But then I would share cause I knew that was the only one others could play too. I wish I had learned but I am not musical and so being tone deaf would probably not have helped.

    Happy TT.

    God bless.

  17. I wasn't a triangle fan...it kept making noise even after you wanted it to stop...I was a control freak even in elementary school :)
    I liked the tamborine; it made me feel like a gypsy ;)

  20. I have totally forgotten about the triangle as a musical instrument! I was very good at it in kindergarten, or at least my mom told me I was...I wonder if our worship leader at church would be able to put my long forgotten skills to use? :-)

  21. Sharp Eyed Reader~ well, there you are! I was expecting a wisecracking visit from you eventually! ha.

    The preschool rhythm band did not include a piano. I would think you would have known this! So sad.

  22. As soon as I learned what this week's theme was I went looking through my Groves to see if Haydn had written a symphony for triangle, but no such luck. Too bad; he wrote them for everything else under the sun (including the Clock Symphony - # 101), but no triangle. So I went exploring other aspects of the word. I'm glad to see you persevered and stuck with the musical instrument.

  24. I had almost forgotten about those boxes filled with drums and triangles and such in elementary school. Thanks for the memory, Betsy!

  25. Roy ~ I was a music major in college...piano...but also was in percussion in the symphonic band. I remember some performing some of those Hayden pieces...interesting and fun!

  27. Something about the "TING!" of a triangle...everyone wanted to be in charge of THAT instrument.

  28. I love the picture. Can't you just hear the music (the triangle being the loveliest part of course)?

  29. Ha I always seemed to get the tambourine when I really wanted the glockenspiel! Love the photo of little Miss Bossy conducting!

  30. SER ~ what gives? No smartass comebacks from you? I thought you'd come over here and play the piano for us! Geesh, if you're gonna come over here on my blog and leave an insulting comment, the least you can do is respond again. So sad!
