I just noticed that yesterday, the poll I've been hosting on the frontpage of my blog has just been closed! Let's see what you, the people, had to say about the most important instrument.
TYING FOR FIRST ARE:
Keyboard and Drums, with 2 votes each.
ALSO TYING FOR SECOND ARE:
Voice and Other, each with one vote
It seems as if no one held the guitar or bass in high regard, for neither of them received and votes at all. How sad.
I am on a quest to find the people's opinion on which instrument plays the greatest role in a typical modern band. Anything that you could do to help would be greatly appreciated.
Which instrument plays the greatest role in the typical modern band?

Possibly the Piano
Well this website, sonatapiano.musicsheetsa.com, who supposedly hosts free sheet music, gave a very nice yet grammatically incorrect statement explaining the pros of the piano over other instruments. Even though a piano can cost quite a lot, and it is not very portable, it is "the most important musical instrument in western music for solo performance, chamber music, composition and verification." I agree with this, but I want to add that the piano is used for much more than what the article stated. It is often used in modern rock and jazz more that western music, or at least, that's what I believe. Regardless, what the article said was pretty sound, if you have anything to say, please comment in the section below.
