I want to have a talent, a talent something related to music. I want to share my talent to everyone, if I only have. And I wish I could have, that's why I want to know what musical instrument will fit me. Is it either flute, violin or organ? Someone tells me that flute is the easiest among the 3, violin is hard, then organ or sometimes we call keyboard is too common? Help me to know which one.

I think that yes, the flute is easiest to play because of its simplicty. The organ, or keyboard is most popular because of the features of the instrument. You can make and record a song with just one organ! If you think that it is too common, why not try the piano? It is more classic and learning to play the piano is a good starting point for learning other instruments. If you can learn to read piano music sheets, all other instruments would basically be the same.
But, i think that the violin is the best! I heard somewhere that it is THE Queen of instruments and I agree. I think that the best song arrangements are those with violins in the background. The sound of violins can be sweet or haunting.
In my case, my dad and cousins taught me how to play the guitar when I was really young. Then, I took formal piano lessons when I was about 7. I also had drum lessons in high school. It is only now that I bought a violin, and though it is really, really hard to learn it, it's so well worth it. (I am now in my 30's so it's a bit harder to learn new things, but, thanks to my piano background when I was younger, learning to play the violin is not impossible.)

Maybe you could go to a musical professional and try each instrument, then have him tell you which one you're best suited for.

You can feel what is the best for you. Just try to know it. Do you really like music? Or you just feel like you want to go with somebody who's involved in today's trend. Music is art and, if you really feel the rhyme inside your heart then you will and even your soul can go along with you. It is inborn within you and no need to search to ask anybody what is best for you. You alone can decide what is the for you. Your passion alone. Just think and try to go with your music. This is just my opinion that you can take it or just leave it. A friendly advice.. Have a nice day my friend!

I think it all depends on the person. I have a flute like instrument that I got at a Renaissance festival and I have only tried to play it a few times. I own a guitar that I got off of HSN. Have only tried to play it a couple of times. And I also have a piano. That is my dominant instrument and it is one that I play on a continuous basis. For some odd reason, the piano is what I gravitate toward. As for you, it all depends what works best for you. You'll figure out which instruments is your dominate instrument, especially if your on it a certain amount of time.

It's easier to start with a keybord instruments. Violin is hard enough it's true.

I think it depends on which musical instrument is your favorite. If you are interested in it, I think you can learn it well. I personally like violin because it is one of the most popular musical instrument. If you play it well, you can even hold a concert:) It is not common to see a music concert only relates to the flute and organ.
I love China

Definately hands down the violin. Not only because of the craftsmanship involved in making the instrument. But, also the complication level of the techniques. Few world renowned violinists have started to play at 18, most start around the time they learn to walk. There is no instrument more beautiful sounding than a lone Stratavarius violin being played by someone who knows what they are doing.

I'd say the violin, It is a very versatile instrument that when you learn to play it it can be played in a lot of different genre of music.
Plus, out of the three it is the one whose sound I like best.

I believe that it will depend on the music you are playing. Well, for me an organ can play the sound of the flute and violin. So amongst those 3 I would have to choose the organ, it is the most common musical instrument too so it is very easy for you to share your talent that way. Where as violin and flute you have to bring your own instrument to play.
Have a nice day. Great discussion. Happy mylotting.

it depends on which one you like the best. out of the three, i like keyboards the best. it was my frustration as a kid to learn how to play it. and only yesterday, i bought one so i can try to learn it. i also like the flute, but you can't sing while playing it. plus, flute for me is too classical. although i fancied learning it while i was younger too. i did learn how to play a bamboo flute though to somehow say that i can play the flute, but i would love to learn the flute too. i was never really interested in violin. on strings, i'm more interested on guitar.

I tried playing organ and flute and violin. that's why
I wanted to play violin too. Violin is a really hard one,
When I listened to a player of violin, I'm not quite
sure if the problem was the violin or the player.
It sounded like noise to me, when I played flute
I was usually lose air a lot because my instrument
has small defects on it but It was really nice.
Organ was also nice and yes it's really common but
you can use it churches, bands, etc. I prefer Flute
best because you can bring it anywhere and you can
join in an orchestra, marching band, or even
rock band using it
