Performing Arts

I'm looking for instrumentals with a lot of epic feeling in the vein of James Blunt. All I can ever find is hip hop and rnb and i'm tired of writing to that genre. I can't play any instruments so this would really help with my songwriting.

Hello!

I'm wondering if any of you could list some instruments for me.

I'm looking for names of instruments that are:

- Not too shrill
- Wooden
- Preferably lesser known instruments (like the panflutes or dulcimer for example)

(optional) - Good places to buy custom made instruments that fit what is listed above


Thank you!

I have a wide variety of cover songs to play. Do i need to make a press pack or just talk to bar owners or what? Any advice from someone who does this or has done it would be helpful.

I took piano lessons a long time ago, and my teacher had this program, where you wrote music, and chose notes for the staffs and all that.

How much do these programs genereally cost? What is a good one? What is a good one that is a resonable price?

I am 19 years old and really have very little music/instrumental background. But I really really want to start learning how to play the spanish/flamenco guitar. Is it too late to learn cause of my age and lack of instrument experience. This is just what some people have told me but I want more than just a couple words for it. What is some advice.

Sometimes it seems like I can't put down the guitar for days at a time....other times two weeks can go by without me picking up the guitar. I stopped taking lessons at 18 (after 8 years of lessons), so I only really play when I want to. Do you practice daily or are you like me and do you go through periods in your life where you don't play like me?

Actually I notice the periods when I don't play is when things are going really well...its when I'm feeling down that I can escape into the guitarworld.

I know all players are different I just want to know if other people are like me.

Can anyone describe to me life as a professional opera singer, in as much detail as possible? What is it like getting started? What is it like when your career gets into full swing? I want to know all the details :)

I'm thinking of becoming an opera singer myself, so I just want to know what to expect.

I was starting to look at some Epiphones and Ibenez but was to sure what to choose. I'm defiantly into rock and metal, if that helps at all. Anyway, thanks for your help, its greatly appreciated!
