What does music look like in your corner of the world?

1. My first-love piano. It has put in more than its fair share of finger-years. It has been a faithful friend and taught me many melodies and harmonies:

Music in my corner of the world helps me relax. I have a piano that my parents gave me one year for Christmas that I do not use nearly enough. My husband recently bought me an Ipod. I enjoy using it while I'm doing laundry and cleaning house. And of course, there's the car radio! I'm impressed that you tried guitar. Closest I ever got was Guitar Hero!
I just spent longer-than-I-care-to-admit organizing my iTunes library. Music is essential here too--though I cannot play a tune nor sing a note! A joyful noise, indeed!
