Reading poetry using expression can have the same effect on listeners- they can be very moved when you finish.

Well you don't necessarily have to give up music just because you can't sing. You could play an instrument. That's what I do as well as dance. If playing an instrument isn't for you, you could try atr or dance or acting. I think they're all great! :)

poety... spoken word

i would learn to play an instrument like the flute or clarinet.

You could paint, write, or do photography. Honestly, the only way to do something emotional and expressive is to do something you truly love to do.

I'd go with playing an instrument. for really expressive and beautiful try the harp. You don't need an orchestral harp, - thereare a number of folk harps around - cheaper, smaller easy toplay. Hope this helps.

Learn to play an instrument. There are many. I recommend the guitar, not the most naturally expressive instrument in the universe (that would be the wind family, including the woodwind and brass instruments) but the most universal - it seems like there's a guitar, or a guitar-like instrument, in every culture in the world. Which is more than you can say for the saxophone.

i think that painting is really great expression of emotion and beauty. plus you can't be good or bad at it. as long as what your trying to convey is being conveyed to you than you got it. chances are someone will get it too. you could also play other instruments or just write songs. without the lyrics or the musical accompaniment the song wouldn't have that emotion. photography works too. same with acting. those last two are probably the hardest but still wonderfully expressive. hope this helps.

well if you don't want to do music why don't you try dance? Dance can show expression quite well. That or pick up some other art.
