By the way, I wouldn't really say I am playing any of those:p. More like trying to convince other people around me that they are not listening to a blender:D.

right now, im mucking around with a few of my own compositions on piano. basically, trying to make them more cohesive and fitting in the lyrics.

also, on the piano, all the recent whitlams songs by heart (about 34). im halfway through, which is 1 album. yippee...

that is definitely a classy song

trumpet:
- goldfinger: more today than yesterday
YEAH GO THE TRUMPET!!! Ska is good - some of the Area 7 songs have good trumpet bits in them...

Anyway on trumpet im playing like studies at the moment such as Bozza, Berediev, Dubois, Sasche, Vizzuti, Clarke, etc. but some of the piece include:
-Joy Spring (Clifford Brown)
-Concerto for trumpet (Harry James)
-Haydn Trumpet concerto (ohhhh im so sick of it!!!)
-Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso (Saint Saens) - a violin piece, sounds much better played on trumpet!!!
-Rustiqus (Bozza)
-Legend (Enesco)
-So what (miles davis)

On piano i love playing MUSE songs!!! Ive almost mastered songs from Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry... im working on songs from Absolution but they are much harder - i transcribed most of the songs off Showbiz and Symmetry myself but with Absolution i needed the actul sheet music to learn them!! But damn, ive finished school, and i dont have a piano at home so i cant play anymore!!!
