Piano, but not very well. I took lessons for a long time, only I never practiced enough. I actually thought I was decent before I got a better piano teacher. You do not know fear until a sixty-something Ukrainian woman with training from the Kiev Conservatory yells at you for messing up a Beethoven Sonata!  ??? She had me go back to the easiest student books you could find. Somewhat embarrassing, but I did get better. I don't take lessons anymore,  though, and I'm sure my skills have slipped. I did compose a short ditty once that she thought was by Bartok, so that was nice, since I was trying to sound like Bartok on purpose (just to see if I could).  :P
