Yes harmony is usually played with the left hand while melody is usually played in the right hand. USUALLY!
The saxophone may play either melody or harmony. However, as an instrument that was designed to simulate the human vocal apparatus it often tends to play melody. The alto sax is more likely to play melody (as opposed to harmony) than the tenor sax, being a higher-pitched instrument.
I like the piano because both the melody and the harmony can be played simultaneously by one person. I like the beauty of the tone also.
You play the melody and don't get encumbered by the rest of the song.
Above the piano is the word DEAD. Those are the keys you are suppose to play DEAD.
On an accordian, the piano-key-like buttons play individual notes, to play the melody, and the little round buttons play chords.
Because Within the orchestra the piano usually supports the harmony, but it has another role as a solo instrument (an instrument that plays by itself), playing both melody and harmony.
If you don't know how to compose, i'd suggest to first look at already written songs, learn to compose by studying music theory, or just listening to some music you like. Then if you have a song, the melody is the part of the song you would sing to. The harmony and the bass are there just to accompany the melody. After you have a song, and identified the melody, all you need to know is how to play to the piano itself.

First, you need the music. The baritone can play the melody part, but will need an accompanist (piano) to fill in the rest of the harmony so that the piece makes sense.

play in a tune to form the sound of a melody
Above the piano is the word DEAD. Those are the keys you are suppose to play DEAD.
On an accordian, the piano-key-like buttons play individual notes, to play the melody, and the little round buttons play chords.
The right side of a piano accordion, where you play the melody, is similar to a piano, except there are fewer keys and thus a shorter range. On the left side, where you play the bass and chords (accompaniment, the notes are arranged in fifths, and the system is very different from the piano keyboard. On a button accordion the right (melody) side is not similar to a piano keyboard. A piano player will quite easily be able to play the right (melody) side of a piano accordion, but the left side will require additional practice. A button accordion is a completely different system, and the piano player will have no advantage with regards to technique.
Diction is to word as melody is to
"Melody" is the tune of the song. There are melody notes and harmony notes (generally the chords). If you want to play only the melody, you will be playing a single line - one note at a time. If you're still unsure of what the melody is, think to yourself: "What part of the song would I sing or hum?" That's the melody.
