How many musicians we got here on Lemmy?
-
I’m a semi-professional choral singer! I very frequently sing on a volunteer basis in a symphony chorus with a professional orchestra. And also sing with a smaller 12-person choir, really tight harmonies and blending. It’s a lot of fun.
Sometimes I get paid, but that’s rare.
I’ve gotten to sing some pretty awesome stuff (Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, video game concerts, Verdi’s Requiem, etc. etc. etc.) and gotten to meet some pretty cool people (including my wife)!
Ey nice! What kind of music communities would you like to see on Lemmy?
-
Music discussion is very lacking here for. Compared to reddit. And yeah I know, 'just post then'. But when I search for music communities here they're empty. And it makes sense because no-one is posting. So kind of a catch 22.
now i dont exactly know how all this lemmy stuff works but... to all you musos out there, can you join me and search for music under communities (I'm using summit app) and just at a minimum subscribe to all the ones that you would be interested in(if they were popping off)?
At least that way when one of us posts, the rest of us will actually see it (I suspect).
Anyway. Keep making the world more fun for everyone else.
P.s if your not a musician, but you like golf or something, subscribe to the golf communities even if they're empty.
I'm a bassist in a few bands. Wish there was more bass discussion here on Lemmy.
If you're into prog rock, check out one of my band's songs: frog rock

Thank you for getting the rest of us started. It is tricky Lemmy being so fragile. Hopefully the synth community will find its footing again somehow.
-
Subbed! Thanks I missed that one
-
Check out the jazz community and for goodness sake, post
Or at the very minimum, reply.
-
Why talk about it when you could bee
practicing or playing. most discussions feel like people who don't like it enough to practice and so theyeare not good and in turn are 'blind leading blind'i play mandolin, at an okay. I dabble in many other things.
Because I'm in bed next to my sleeping wife and I wanna support the community and maybe reply to help someone on their musical journey.

Pro or no. I'm looking for people with the spark for music. It sounds like you are getting your feet wet as a generalist. Singing and lryicism is my main, but I dabble in the rest to pull together recordings of what's in my head. Nice to meet you. What communities would you like to see more active on Lemmy. And have you subbed to similar ones already?
-
I sing and play folk music on the guitar and early music on lute and recorder (my favorite size is the tenor).
Have you found any Lemmy communities for folk music yet?
-
I'm already subbed to a few comms but I'd take recommendations on what I should be following
What kinda stuff you into? Maybe search for your specific instrument and sub even if it's empty. The more people that do this the more we can find each other.

Bedroom guitarist with too many pedals checking in
There is a guitar pedal community on Lemmy go search and sub to it. Lemmi see that pedalboard!
-
I'm learning to play the piano!
Have you subbed/followed any piano Lemmy communities? Piano4all on udemy is really good for learning piano. That's how I started out. Cost me 11 euro total, practiced 15 mins a day. And look at me now.... I can.... Kinda play lol
-
I played the Kazoo for several years but I could never tune it properly.
Did you try waxing it with blinker fluid?
-
I play the cello but I havent practiced in 3 months
Have you followed a cello community on Lenny? Maybe it'll keep the spark alive for you enough to get back to the strings. I wanted to play cello as a kid because of that little half plastic ball that goes on the end of the metal stick so you don't scratch the ground. Saw one that looked like a galaxy and was hooked, but they only had violins left at my school. so, you are essentially living my dream.

Not professional, and I haven't played in years, but I did play trumpet in band for about a decade!
Oh sick. Are you local to Melbourne by chance? I need some trumpet sometimes

Have you followed/subbed to the bass communities on Lemmy? The more people do it, the more they'll talk there. Just gotta take the first baby steps.
-
You can count me in, both for stats and trying to join more music focused communities!
You've got my axe!
-
[email protected] has like 2 posts a week, I am sure people would gladly see it going to 3 posts a week
Damn, a boy can only dream. Imagine 2 posts with a comment each. I've subbed.
-
I play the Penny Whistle!
Penny whistle gang unite. Go find a Lemmy community and follow it. Heck you could find the guitar community and take it over with their paltry numbers.
-
Answer to title: 2, maybe 3.
There's dozens of us!

Have you subbed/followed any piano Lemmy communities? Piano4all on udemy is really good for learning piano. That's how I started out. Cost me 11 euro total, practiced 15 mins a day. And look at me now.... I can.... Kinda play lol
I'm learning in person, but thanks for the suggestions
