Question by Jane Doe: Musical instruments!!!?
I know that learning how to play an instrument is never easy, but, what would you say is the least difficult instrument to learn how to play rather well in the shortest amount of time (2-3 years).
Not wind or persussion instruments please. I already play a wind instrument and sort of want to take on another instrument. Also, why do you think it is the least difficult.??
Best answer:
Answer by Cat
I learned how to play flute in a matter of months.
But most say that is one of the hardest instruments to learn how to play when you’re a beginner.
I would say, try the clarinet, or the trumpet. It’s rather easy. Flute, clarinet, and trumpet are started instruments.
