I play the piano. Do you play any instruments?
I don't play any instruments myself, but I do love the piano. Apparently piano comes from an Italian term meaning "soft."
I did not know that. I believe that the violin and piano are both Italian. Do you speak Italian?
No, I can barely speak English properly! Funny you bring up violins, because most people don't realize that pianos are stringed, as well.  
Yes they are! Gives them such a beautiful, rich sound. Are you a fan of classical music?
I love Beethoven, especially his loud thunderous symphonies. What about you?
Beethoven is - in my honest opinion - arguably the greatest musical figure ever. His symphonies are absolutely brilliant
I agree. His symphonies are my fave, but I also love some of his paino sonatas.
