literally cruel and inhumane that u have to actually spend time to learn & practice instruments instead of just picking them up and immediately being able to play them perfectly

Honestly someone asked me about writing Kar'niss x Tav and I am BEGGING THEM to come back. Kar'niss has such a wonderful manner of speaking and characters with strange dialogue are my jam.

How would aliens deal with musical instruments—Western classical or otherwise? For example - you think if they saw a violin and then a cello, they’d say “oh that’s just a bigger violin” and then the respective players would get (rightfully) heated? Or, what about the guzheng or the didgeridoo?
I think that they would most likely understand that sound comes from those instruments but yes, they would probably piss off the respective players. Yes I think that they would refer to a viola as a tiny violin while a cello would be a bigger one because tbh, it looks like a violin except the size. The didgeridoo is one of my favourite weird instruments and aliens would be very confused how it makes different sounds. The guzheng is a guitar or violin except on the side so yes aliens would refer to this as a guitar-violin-piano. This pisses all the players off and they keep correcting them. The aliens get there in the end but it takes a very long time because the instruments we have might not be the same as on thier planet.
Another route is that some aliens don't have music and are fascinated by the instruments which means that these aliens would make sure to get everything correct so that their favourite humans who play instruments can still play and not be mad. I think that these aliens would then introduce it to their planet and then the music culture would evolve from earth's culture.
Obviously, I cannot say for sure what aliens would think but in summary, they definitely confuse instruments or just call some a mini/tiny or big/huge version of whatever the instrument it looks like.
Sorry this is so short! I am tired and have no energy and I should probably go to sleep.

Holmes tapping his fingers on things such as a book, his lip, his tummy, a piece of paper, a picture frame, his thigh, plus tapping his pipe on a map.
Holmes in the books by Arthur Conan Doyle also taps his fingers on things a lot:
The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington plans: “He sat lost in thought, tapping his fingers on the table”... “ tapping the furniture”
The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax: “his long, nervous fingers tapping upon the arms of his chair"
His last bow: “Holmes, tapping the valise”
The Adventure of the Empty House: “More than once he fidgeted with his feet and tapped rapidly with his fingers upon the wall”
A Study In Scarlet: “He gnawed his lip, drummed his fingers upon the table, and showed every other symptom of acute impatience”
The Problem of Thor Bridge: “in his nervous restlessness, he could not sit still, but paced the carriage or drummed with his long, sensitive fingers upon the cushions beside him”
