For me, it could be just about any instrument, including the drums and the human voice. I have played the piano, violin, cello, and guitar for many years, and the emotion that you put into it, is heard in the "voice" of the instrument as you play. The cello has a very deep, soulful sound when played well. The piano has a range that is unmatched, maybe because there are two hands uniting notes and creating sounds that move people in many ways. Music is an emotional journey, whether played or just listened to.
