I used to play guitar but stopped because at the time I thought I had better things to do.

I trained classically in singing opera, I'm a soprano.
I did a degree in music, but I don't really like most opera.
I don't like the elitism of it.

I am INFJ, 53, male.
I took piano lessons for seven years starting 9th August 1990. I was a good student: 1 lesson every week for 4 years, and a double lesson every fortnight for 3 years. I practised every day, starting with 10 minutes a day, ending at 2 to 3 hours a day after 7 years' study.
I wanted to play Mozart's piano sonatas. I studied counterpoint and harmony, and played lots of Bartok's Mikrokosmos, dozens of Scarlatti sonatas from the Editio Musica Budapest edition of 200 sonatas in 4 volumes. Ah, Scarlatti! Oh, and lots of Bach. Every student of the piano gets up close and personal with the 48 preludes and fugues, and sundry other pieces, some of the Partitas, Toccatas, English and French Suites, and more besides. The piano literature is vast.
I used the study of piano technique and music as a therapeutic activity, in recovery from post-traumatic stress disorder, arising from being in a train crash. It helped.

I've been playing drums with various cover bands for about 10 years now. My biggest inspirations are danny carey of tool, neil peart of rush, or benny greb who's a soloist though he has a band called grebfruit. Mostly enjoy rock (especially 90s grunge) though I'm open to just about any genre as long as its done well and has some soul to it.

Nice to hear from all the INFJ musicians here!
Although I don't come from a musically inclined family, music has always been my life-saver. It's food for my soul. Can't imagine life without it. My husband (INTJ) and i (INFJ) create music together in our little home studio. You can find our music here https://soundcloud.com/pitchfeather/sets/mountains_and_tides, if anyone's interested to listen.
