I would, but I'm not quite as musically proficient... my range is, if I stretch, around D or C-D or E, 3 octaves, placing me as a soprano in every choir I've ever been in. I play violin/fiddle. I'm fairly OK at the piano. I can read bass clef VERY SLOWLY, and am really good at treble, although alto clef isn't yet learned. I can play the radio really well, so long as there aren't too many buttons and knobs.... I have a vast encyclopedia [well, not too vast] of Turlough O'Carolan trivia [there's a trivia section idea! Obscure facts from the 1600's!] and I know a lot of all-purpose Irish tunes. Yeah, that sounds useful....
