The Triangle

To play the Triangle correctly is actually far harder than it looks. I play in the Percussion Section for my county Orchestra, and trust me, the triangle is one of the hardest instruments. for a start, on the music notation(of course triangle has its own type of notation) it actually had 5 different notes(different ways of playing) and there are 3 different sizes of stick u have to use(which i might add, change quite frequently during a piece) so actually, alot of concentration is needed.

By the way,, the different triangle notes are

C,C#, E,G and A.
The octave of the notes depends on the size of the triangle, but the standard is that the C note is middle C.

Bet u didnt know that huh?

No problem. I’m sick and tired of people saying “I can play the triangle its sooo easy”. Well sorry all you budding musicians out there, but as a matter of fact, you can’t. Just like you can’t actually play the mouth organ, or the kazoo, however much you think you can.

I'm sure the triangle is hard, but try playing the accoustic guitar, where you have to concentrate on isolation of the fingers so that you can do different things with each hand. Not only that, but if your fingers aren't correctly placed on the frets, what you're playing will sound like ****. :)

Not to mention acoustic strings are much harder than electric, and they hurt more
