I love the sound of the oboe. It's just so beautiful... However, I play the flute and I'm gonna say I love it just a bit more. But my most beloved instrument of all time is the piano. I spent all my childhood, adolescence and what I have of adulthood playing the piano. I love the sound and the endless possibilities. Too bad that even though I've been tought to play it for over 15 years, I can never achieve virtuoso level, and therefore, compared to other piano students at my former music school, I suck at it, 'cause piano is the most difficult instrument as well. Seriously, pianists don't get the respect they deserve. Everyone's like "OMG, that's, like, the easiest instrument ever, all you gotta do is press buttons". I actually always want to smack the person who says sometyhing like this in the face. Ignorance!
