I've been playing classical piano for quite a few years and started
taking lessons about 15 years ago from someone who was good. We became
friends as well, and I'd still be taking lessons if she hadn't died 5
years ago (89 years old.) It would be nice to have the time to learn to
sight read :).

I stopped playing the tuba 40 years ago.
My hearing is way too bad to subject anybody to listening to it.
I took up the tuba in 1997, being a nearsighted piano player since I was
a
kid. My wife encouraged me to take up an instrument that I could be
more
"sociable" with.
I'm still nearsighted, but since then, I've also learned double bass and
am
setting my sights on learning viola this year. Just another noise to
torment the dogs...
Are musically-minded people still as commonplace in the computer
business
as they once were?
