Hey there! I cant play any instruments but its funny because really any object that is able to create sound can be considered a musical instrument, right?
I think so! A fire alarm is definitely an instrument
Oh yeah thats a good one! I mean yeah it does create sounds that some people may feel is musical. Haha!
There was a Nathan For You episode on it
Was there? Thats funny! The thing is, the origin and date of the first instruments is totally disputed so no one really knows when the first instrument was
I would say its unknowable
Yeah it pretty much is. The flute is known though, it dates back some 67,000  years!
