No I play it right handed or i'd take someones eye out in an orchestra and it would look odd bowing with the left hand lol My guitar is strung for left handed playing though.

Re: What do you play?

Good point about the bow, although I suppose a violinist who did play left-handed could turn around and face the other way, then the bow would go in the same direction as everyone else's.

Re: What do you play?

I play guitar (badly) and have been strumming around and upsetting everyone's dog in a fifty yard radius for around twenty years or so. I started with classical, moved to blues and slowly migrated over to jazz / jazz-blues fusion. I spent a few years at night school learning it and have been known once or twice in my life to play live (beer permitting). If I stuck at it, I would probably be semi-pro in about 2 years if I really wanted to - but like all things, my interest in it tends to wax and wane and I just enjoy plinking away to backing tracks and I'm content to stay at that level.

I use to play my piano. I love to compose new music ideas in my piano.
