there 'is' an instrument within your inner core, but maybe it isn't
the paino.
I woudln't know. But I seriouly think it is not the piano.
You don't think piano.
For me, it is bass.
you might do better with a single note intrument vs a chord intrument.
you seem to think in scalelines.
Remember your musical dreams. What instrument or type of sound stood
out?
go with that.
I tried guitar nad bass, both basically chord instruments, i did not
do well.
I did well with clarinet and bass, single note scale insruments.
