The musical instruments adults most regret quitting

Music is more than its emotive powers. Playing an instrument can bring unexpected physical and even health benefits, too. It's great for cognitive health because it engages every part of the central nervous system, John Dani, chair of neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine, told Penn Medicine News. He also noted that it helps develop the left and right sides of the brain whenever each hand does separate tasks.

But, regardless of the reasons for giving up an instrument, many still wish they'd kept with it. Skoove looked at YouGov data and found the top 12 instruments people most regret quitting based on the percentage of respondents who said "Yes" when asked if they regret no longer playing a certain instrument.

Aside from factors like time and being able to afford instruments and lessons, unique challenges can arise when playing some of the instruments on this list that can contribute to quitting. Piano, harp, and drums may have logistical challenges if learners live in smaller homes or apartments that lack enough space—or forgiving family members and neighboUrs.
