What instrument would Chromium play?
Commander Deck Help forum

I recently made a finalized draft of an EDH decklist centered around banding, with Chromium at the helm (for more old-school mechanics). As the easiest way to give banding consistently is with the cycle of banding lands (for this deck, Cathedral of Serra, Unholy Citadel, and Seafarer's Quay), the deck has a historic theme. The joke of the deck is that all the legendary creatures are part of a band, so after I put the deck together I was planning to alter all of them with simple clipart-ish instruments. My question is: based on the art and character of each card, what instrument should I paint?
Some of them are fairly simple, like Ayesha Tanaka. It's not a stretch to say she's singing, so I could paint a little microphone next to her. Odric, Lunarch Marshal could be playing a cello. Although recognizability is important, I'd like a lot of different instruments. The sillier, the better. Any ideas?

Gideon of the Trials: Drums, either a drum set or one of those big marching band drums.
Tymna the Weaver: Triangle or cymbals

I could totally picture Azor, the Lawbringer with either a DJ booth or drum set in front of him.

Arvad the Cursed should have a harp.
Sidisi, Undead Vizier should have a didgeridoo. (in his right hand)
Raff Capashen, Ship's Mage should have a flute.
Kytheon should have a small and when he flips it should turn into a larger instrument of a similar type (don't know what, a kazoo maybe?).

Sorin is clearly a death metal guy, I'd give him an electric guitar.

Raff Capashen, Ship's Mage is playing the violin. The way his arms are held, you should be able to make that work.
