I have studied piano and classical guitar. Unfortunately, my talent for chess is
almost zero. I have managed to reach 1800 after much effort and don't count on
ever playing decently. It is possible that love for chess and love for music is
related somehow, but I wouldn't extend that to talent for both activities.
