Which musical instrument is most difficult to play?

May 02, 2017 02:09PM
I saw an interview with Tom Hanks once and he was talking about his 'stubbornness'. As an example he used this: If asked who the most important member of a band he said he'd reply and that was that... wouldn't change his mind.

I'm going to do the same as Tom... but different question.

I started by playing the trumpet...learned drums, self taught, about the end of my sophomore year. IMHO opinion the drums are the 'easiest' instrument to play. Now I'm not referring to the real masters, the pros... in which case ALL musical instruments are extremely difficult.

My choice for 'hardest' is "Keyboards". I can't wrap my brain around ten fingers doing ten different things. That's over simplified, I know... but it works.

Keyboard players are like magicians to me. - JamesJM
