Please see my answer in this category on the person who asked guitar or violin. I also played piano, but found that because it's so large, it's hard to get together with others and play unless they all come to you.

Violins and guitars are so easy to carry around. I also am very partial to the violin because after a SLOW and CONCENTRATED beginning, the rewards are THERE!

YOUR NEVER TOO LATE!!!!!!!!!

no u follow what u want to do?:P

hope it helped :)

You are never too late to learn music. if you are a starter, I would advise against violin. The fingerings aren't too hard, it's the bowing. I think that you would get too frustrated (like me!). I play piano as well. I think that it is a good instrument to learn how to play. If you are interested in guitar, would you read actual music or tabs?

You're never too late to learn music. I suggest you go to your instructors and speak to them about whether or not they take beginning level students in your year. Also, they should be able to direct you to the instrument/choice best suited for you.

Good luck!

It is very to learn to play what you like; however, you won't be as good as others, for some instruments you've got to start learning from a very young age... but it's something that you love and are prepared to give all you have to do it right...So go ahead! it's never too late to do what you like

your never too old

You are NEVER to late to learn music. Music is a wonderful thing and I think everyone should know it. For starters, I would play piano first because that is the bases of every instrument. Then you could go to to guitar if you like. But definitely piano first.

Good lord, how could you be too late. You're a kid. Do you mean because the music business only hired teenagers and by the time you are good you'll be a dreaded older person... you know, 22 or something and too old for the market?

You know, the market sux, and music is for everyone, not just certain attractive connected young people.

guitar i wouldnt suggest to start violin or piano now because most people start when theyre 5 or 6 and the fingerings for most of the music get really complicated and it takes awhile to get used to playing fast
