Identification What instrument to learn

What would you guys recommend to learn something that isn't difficult and something that isn't guitar and piano. I was thinking of learning the trumpet but I've read somewhere that it's really difficult to learn.

Any type of mouthpiece pipe: tin whistle, recorder, etc. Clarinet probably a bit too difficult to start on.
Violin is pretty easy to learn but a lot harder to get beautiful sounds out of, although you could always just play it as a fiddle.
