Re: What instrument is the hardest? My experience
I torture myself, my dogs, and my family with violin, and although I can make notes that are almost in tune, I wouldn't represent myself as being able to play, even after 10 years. But the most impossible instrument to play I have found so far is the theremin. I built one, worked at it for a year, and finally gave up and gave it away.
The easiest and one of the most enjoyable instruments I have found is the mountain dulcimer. What a great instrument! I built one to replace the theremin, and it is beautiful to listen to, look at, and play.
Ha, ha! keep time: how sour sweet music is,
When time is broke and no proportion kept!
