heyhey,

this here might contain two questions actually.

  1. got an idea, what instrument might suit me?
  2. how, actually learn?

background

i am not new to learng stuff by myself, mostly languages in the widest sense. the only thing i can’t really get my head around is music. i know rudimentary how to read notes, but ofc don’t really grasp what they mean. when i learned a bit about electronics, that explained a lot more about music for me. i tried to learn the recorder (bc its was there) and keyboard (bc super versatile). by now, that all didn’t work. i am a beginner.

i guess that is abt how these are played. i am used to grab a book sit down in a comfy position and read. keyboards need setup and are relatively large. the recorder is small and portable, but you need a decent body position, to control your breath.

i was thinking about some kind of ukulele, maybe? how do i build a habit, that works for practice?

    I did this, not quite a year ago. Light and easy to carry. Can play it anywhere. It’s been super fun. I’m a 60+ year old man and never able to play anything before.
