Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I would say any of them!. On the scale of musical difficult, most contemporary christian worship fall just above nursery rhymes!. If you can figure out how to plunk "three blind mice", you can play 90% of all christian worship!. With a guitar and a capo and six chords you should be able to play just about anything, for instance, even if all you're doing is strumming!. Capos let you transpose your chords up, so that if you are playing in the key of C, you capo up to the 2nd fret and it sounds like you are actually playing in the key of D!. So, by knowing that and knowing that each key has four chords that are most commonly used (root, fourth, fifth, relative minor) then with a bit of thought you can learn two different keys and be able to play just about anything by capoing up - key of C (C F G Am) and key of G (G C D Em)!. Of course, they both share G and C, so that makes six chords!. Key of E!? Play key of C, Capo fourth fret!. Key of Bb!? Key of G, capo third fret!. And so on!. Bass isn't that difficult, either, you have to learn your notes and know what to play!. Even if you only ever play roots and fifths, you should be able to play enough for most christian music!. Drums are a little more difficult, it's learning rhythm and how to do two or three different things at the same time!. I fail at it, but you should at least try it out first! You can do a lot with piano, but I'd say its probably the most difficult to get into from the perspective that all those white keys look the same when you first start!. =) Try a couple different instruments, and go with what feels the most natural!. There is always a learning curve, no matter what instrument it is!.!.!. even the bass has a learning curve, becase even though the notes are easier to find, you have to be able to play in time with the drummer (metronome! metronome! metronome!), to a higher degree than any of the other instruments!. You aren't too late, you're never too late to learn how to play music! Especially when that music is mostly comprised of repeating patterns of two or three chords!.!.!.!. I used to alternate between playing guitar and bass for a home group I went to back when I was nailing this christian chick!. They were good people, it was cool!. The best part about it was that I already knew her rhythm (she was lead most of the time) so even though I didn't "know" the song I could freestyle off of the chord sheet exactly like I mentioned above - except that I stopped using a capo and used barre chords instead, which looks much more impressive!. =) "I knew her rhythm" - she only had one or two strum patterns!. That's what I meant!. Well, I !.!.!. oh, nevermind!. *chuckle* SaulWww@QuestionHome@Com The choice should be: The instrument which you like best!. Don't pick one because someone tells you it is easy or that it is cool to play!. If you are going to stick with it, it must be your choice!. enjoy your music and share it!. Best of Luck Www@QuestionHome@Com bass, it take the least time to learn in my opinion, and the songs you are going to play should be easy so if your not that good at it, no on could tell!.Www@QuestionHome@Com go for bass comment and rate http://www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=rOSuC6jxB!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Hmm i'd say bass!.2 years of working hard and you should be pretty good at it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com they all sound good!. don't ask us choose whichever fancies uWww@QuestionHome@Com |
