My middle level is pretty larger >

It took me almost 40 years to find the piano and it has been so much fun. 3 months in and a few chords and everything sounds terrific. Reading music isn’t bad at all. 
Tried guitar, wasn’t helping my carpal tunnel one iota (and I’m a software engineer). Played woodwinds in school, some. 
Simply Piano… been really fun. >

So you mean it has a higher skill ceiling and lower skill floor? >

Not exactly. Less that the skill ceiling is higher, just that it appears lower because the "passable range" is larger between the skill floor and the beginning of becoming what you'd really call "good". So you get this large middle of players that don't sound terrible, but don't sound amazing, so it lowers people's perception of what you'd imagine being "hard". >

French horn is a wind? >

Wind as in you blow into it. So Woodwind and Brass. >

Oh okay sorry English isn’t my first language I thought woodwinds = winds
