I’ve always thought the French Horn sounded hopeful and inspiring.
Trombones elicit humor and are funny to me.
Tubas remind me of elephants.
A single violin can be mournful while a bunch of them sound majestic.
A piano in the hands of the right person can take you from tears to a HUGE smile!!!
A slide whistle represents disappointment.
Oboes are often used for sad or melancholy music. To a degree, so are cellos.
Flutes and piccolos are often used for light-hearted, lilting melodies.
String bass/double bass is often used – particularly the lower strings – for sounds of foreboding and fear.
An orchestral triangle is used for those exclamation mark moments in life.
Aren’t all musical instruments capable of conveying the full range of human emotions? Regarding style, fast music is usually for a happy excited mood and slow music is for more thoughtful or low-spirited moods. High pitch is for a cheery mood and low pitch for sombre moods.
