How do you know if your good at playing the piano or not?
The Importance of Practice for Success
There is a saying - 99% of hard work and 1% of talent will make you a good pianist. Several studies have traced young piano students and seen that those who were viewed as more "talented" put in more hours practicing before hand. It can be difficult to realize when watching someone perform brilliantly that their ability is the result of many thousands of hours of practicing and training. While piano might not be for everybody, a huge factor in the success of anyone playing piano is practicing. For many successful students, practicing becomes fun - really the main purpose of playing the piano. Learning new pieces and perfecting technique are the typical day to day actions of a pianist. If you are eager to learn the piano and have the means to practice regularly as well as a good teacher or some means of learning the instrument, you will almost definitely find yourself succeeding and improving.
What It Means to be Talented
I think that you can know if you are talented in piano if you can move pretty fast (as long as you try) and when you are putting as much work and thought into piano (with mostly the same conditions and a similar teacher) as someone else but you are receiving remarkably better results, then you can consider the thought of being talented.
Some people don't have the chance to show their talent; to the people that do, work hard and make all the money and time worth it.

In the 11th century the first orchestras were made up of small group musicians performing for festivals, but the true modern orchestras didn't start until the late 16th century.

Notbale "expanders" of the orchestra would be Beethoven, who brought the piccolo into the orchestra with his fifth symphony, Wagner, who greatly expanded the brass section, Berlioz, who made more extensive use of the harp in the orchestra than anyone before him, and so on.

guitar and saxophone
Different regions used different instruments. The guitar stems from the 15th century vihuela of Aragon, which also used flutes and a variety of percussion in its traditional dance, jota. Traditional Andalusian and Murcian music featured violin and other plucked strings, as well as a three-holed pipe called a gaita rociera. Traditional music in northwest Spain featured bagpipes, while Basque music used accordions.

Roughly: Baby Grand = up to 5' 7" Grand = 5' 7" - 7' Concert Grand 7'+ Measure the longest length under the entire piano frame. Pianos are rarely, for example, exactly 6' long. But a 5' 10" is considered a "6 footer." So commonly, a baby is about 5 feet, grand is 6, concert is 7. Some purists consider anything smaller than a concert grand (7') a baby grand. Personally, a standard parlor grand for me starts at 5' 7" which is the Steinway Model M. Their baby grand is Model S at 5' 1": Model "S": 5'1" Model "M": 5'7" Model "O" and "L": 5'10" Model "A": 6'2" Model "B": 6'11" Model "D": 8'11"
