Would Machete and Vasco have any interest in learning a musical instrument? If so, what would they play? ( cannon or original)
I have been thinking about re-learning playing piano again, and it struck me that piano seems to be a instrument Machete could enjoy playing if he had the chance.
Do I get to pick any instruments I want for them? Even kind of unlikely weirdo ones?
Machete doesn't play anything in original canon or modern au, but if he did, I think the only truly correct choice would be pipe organ.
16th century Vasco can play lute a little bit! It's not something he's very enthusiastic about but it was part of his education. Maybe he'd be more into it in the modern times.
Or, alternatively, hurdy-gurdy, which has somewhat of a darker sound to it. I just think he'd look smashing cranking that big ol' thing.

OTD in Music History: The supreme master of music, Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750) was born in Eisenach, then the capital of the duchy of Saxe-Eisenach, in present-day Germany.
What more is there to say?
To all readers: Make sure that you listen to some Bach today (and every day).
And to the musicians, just remember: "There is nothing remarkable about playing a musical instrument. All one has to do is hit the right keys at the right time, and the instrument plays itself.” - J.S. Bach
PICTURED: A very fine printed copy of a late 19th-Century British engraving done by "C. Cook" after the famous 1746 painting of the elderly Bach by Elias Gottlob Haussmann (1695 - 1774).
