What Your Musical Instrument Says About You

You’re generally very pleasant and easy to be around, but you’re also far more complicated than you let on. Those who really know you know how hard you work to excel at nearly everything, but they also appreciate you for being chill and never letting your emotions get the best of you.

Flute

You have a great sense of humor (especially in regards to yourself) and don’t consider yourself super shy, but you also love to feel more like part of the group rather than the center of attention. And you always are the person to make a friend group extra fun, so people obviously love you.

Piccolo

You’re incredibly hardworking and disciplined, but you never let that keep you from connecting with other people. In fact, you love collaborating and working together, and more than anything you value the occasional people you find who share the same specific interests as you and who will dork out over all the same things you love.

Piano

You’re totally the class clown, but you also transcend the stereotype of class clowns being slackers and have no trouble putting in the effort when it comes to something you care about. You can actually handle enormous amounts of pressure because you can find the humor in almost anything.

Xylophone

You amaze everyone around you with your confidence, but you and your closest friends all know how much work you put in to feel as great about yourself as you do. You overcome leaps and hurdles just so you can excel so much that everything you do looks effortless and fascinating to everyone around you.

Saxophone

You are versatile and adventurous, always wanting to add more color or more energy to just about everything you participate in. You are vastly aware of how short life is and you refuse to waste a moment of it doing something you don’t love or spending it with people who don’t challenge or fascinate you.

Guitar

You are cool. Real cool. You have a refined appreciation for subtlety and are often complimented by others on your good taste. You’re also a gifted problem solver and can often find the one small fix that makes something go from good to great.

Bass Guitar

You are fly as all else but you’re so much more than just some cool-looking person because there’s plenty of those in the world. You draw people in with your free-spirited personality coupled with your insane work ethic, making you the person that pretty much everyone wants to be.

Banjo 

On the outside, you may look rebellious, but you’re actually a really balanced person and aren’t that much of an attention seeker at all. You strive to keep the balance between all the people in your life and are willing to work really hard for the sake of the team, only stealing the spotlight once in a while.

Drums

You know exactly what you want and will fight to achieve it. You have a remarkable ability to block out neighsayers and your own doubts to instead just pursue your goals and embrace the pitfalls on the way there.

Violin

You are patient beyond belief and generally very forgiving of other people (especially when they keep getting the name of your instrument wrong.) You amaze people with your diligence and selflessness when it comes to the betterment of the group.

Viola

You are very good at looking smooth and refined even when you actually have a lot going in your life. You have a very good eye for art and beauty and manage to always keep everything looking good and put together in a way that bewilders everyone.

Cello

You love to challenge yourself, often going a little too far and making life unnecessarily hard. Luckily, you’ve learned and grown a lot from making yourself try new and difficult things, and you can overcome obstacles that other people find near impossible.

Double Bass

You are talkative and fun, never understanding the point of doing something if you’re going to be shy about it. No matter what, you fit into just about any social situation with ease and are one of those friends your friends can bring anywhere without worrying about you being left out (because by the time you leave, you’ll have made five new pals.)

Trumpet

You are never too intimidated by a challenge and you are certainly not one to skip around steps or try to find the easy route out all the time. You work really hard for everything you have and don’t question why certain things happen or dwell on how other things are unfair. You simply always do your best.

Trombone

You are incredibly kind and are referred to by everyone as “sweet”, but sometimes that leads to you being unfairly ignored or forgotten about. But the people who really know you appreciate you for your warmth and selflessness, and those are where your true friends are at.

Euphonium

You aren’t at all focused on showing off or trying to impress people. You are confident and know exactly what you like and aren’t afraid to pursue it. You can find joy in life without aiming to be famous or wealthy, which is a rare and really enviable quality.

Clarinet

You are very social and positive, making every outing with you an enjoyable one. You can make friends with just about anyone and are always good at lightening the mood when your buds are feeling down.

Oboe

You have a pretty extraordinary level of self-confidence and people find you inexplicably magnetic. Despite your outer coolness, you have a warmth and ability to open up that makes everyone want to be your friend.

Bassoon

You are endlessly meticulous in all your endeavors but you never let your nitpickiness get in the way of good fun. You love to hang out in a big group of friends after a long day and know that nothing de-stresses you quite like a good laugh.

French Horn

You are the glue that holds everyone together, but you never think to take credit. You put in a lot of effort and don’t focus so much on recognition as you do on simply doing your best for yourself and for the greater benefit of the team.

Baritone

You don’t particularly enjoy standing out but you somehow always manage to anyway, but only in the best way possible. Basically, you are damn sexy, and you should own it more because HELLO.

Tuba

Are you an angel? The answer is yes, yes you are. You play a giant, super inconvenient instrument that produces a sound that immediately calms everyone it reaches. God bless you.

Harp

You are either the best person or worst person for playing a tiny piece of metal and calling it an instrument.
