    Absolutely. I did not intend to paint an over simplistic picture of who could play what. Just thought that those two instruments readily evoked a past where people often even took musical instruments wherever they traveled and occupied themselves with music on the road, on work breaks et cetera. Like you say, it was a different time. And music and dance are extremely universal methods of expressing yourselves and fostering community.
