     Hello! My name is Annie Coniam and welcome to my blog! As you can see by the title I play the cello, however, my foray into music started long before that. I played the violin for about three years before I decided on cello and I have dabbled in piano, ukulele and guitar. However, music is not my only passion. I love hiking, cooking, anything to do with animals, and martial arts.      I want to try out and learn about all kinds of instruments from percussion to woodwinds. Music has been a major part of my life for so long and I want to explore everything it has to offer. From a young age I was listening to anything and everything from classical to classic rock. Now I enjoy classical music, rap, classic rock and on occasion country. I have been to a few concerts and I enjoy going to places with live music. If your interested in music I like- click here! This is one of my favorite songs of all time!
