Any time anything bad happens your instrument will always be there for you and will never let you down. That is why i love my trombone and music is my life.

Yeah. Whenever I feel stressed I lock myself in my room and just start playing my saxophone. It helps me relax.

Actually...lol...i'd play my trumpet as well. I'd plop down on the couch and constantly play double C's..you know, slur from high C's or double G's and i'd occasionally hit D's. That makes me feel TONS better.

I always pick up my flute when i am upset. Depending on what im feeling depends on what I play.
When im sad i usually break out the Beethoven.
When im mad i usually get out some marches.
And when I get my post-marching band sadness i break out our show music and stand songs.
I don't know why they just seem to work.

When I'm sad I just like to hold my clarinet and stroke it...
I don't like playing when I'm angry because my sound suffers and it makes me more angry.

I went to 3 different high schools in 3 different states, and my instrument has helped through each move. And especially with college auditions coming up for me, just playin some classic fun songs makes it bearable enough to continue to work towards the goal of getting in and through with all the random and bad stuff in high school.

if i get mad or frustrated, i dont retreat to my instrument, i just go turn on my music player with whatever playlist makes me happiest at the time, turn off the lights, and just sit there until i can calm down some.

All the time. When ever I get made or sad I will go into my room and play my clarinet for hours. Either that or I will go my piano and write a new song. Listening to classical music relaxes me also. Thats why I like that my band class is the last in the day, becuase everything bad that happens earlier on the day, I can go to band class and I will feel so much better. It always makes me feel better.

me too, when i get really mad i play my piano or flute. i love memorizing music on the piano so when i get mad and start playing i just fall into the "music spell". it's a great feeling, i'm glad i'm a band nerd.

I do that all the time. Playing my flute really helps me relax when I'm stressing out. It's a great escape for me.

My bassoon helps me when I am sad. My flute use to help me...but my bassoon is now my new security blanket.

I get comfort from my flute whenever I'm sad or mad. Playing it makes me forget about everything else for a while and to calm down.

my flute (epiphany) is my best friend. if i have any overwhelmin emotion, be it angry, sad, or happy i play. getting that emotion out by playing is one of the only ways i can feel better, the only others are writing or listening to music.
