Which instrument should I start taking up?

I am 14 and play piano and am looking for a brass/woodwind instrument to start learning because I want to join the band. I realise it's going to take some time but it's all going to be worth it so it's all good.

Which do you reckon is the easiest instrument to learn? (Not to a high/pro level but just say AMEB grade 4 or 5 level?) What should I take?

Before, I have considered percussion but do you think it'd be boring?

Thank you! :)Which instrument should I start taking up?
Saxophone or Trumpet. If you play the Trumpet, you'll get all the good bits in the band. If you play the saxophone, you'll get more boring bits in the band, but the saxophone is a fantastic instrument (I play piano and saxophone, myself).

As for percussion, it's not boring. There's often less notes to play, but it'll improve your timing and your ability to listen to everyone else in the band. Percussion isn't just the big bass drum, remember. It's all sorts of instruments like the Timpani, Drum Kit, Xylophone, etc. The piano itself can be classed as a percussion instrument, since it uses the hammers to strike the strings.



Basically, if you are looking for Brass/Woodwind, then pick the Saxophone or the Trumpet. But don't rule percussion out. I myself would love to play the Timpani. They're very cool.Which instrument should I start taking up?
First there are many diffrent type of woodwind instraments. I play the carnet. Once you learn lets say the saxiphone. You can play all soprano,alto,tenner,bass,bairiton sax all by learning the alto. Same with the clarnet and flute. Soprano clanet alto bass and contro bass clarnet. Flute piccolo alto tenner bass . Or trumpet do somthing just try oneWhich instrument should I start taking up?
Do the saxaphone. Its Mega eaasy. IV been playing it for 9 years
