Depending on your musical background and what instrument you're looking to pick up, I think you could just grab it and **** around for a few hours a day for a month, you should be able to come up with at least a good understanding with how it works and be able to play some stuff that works for you (depending if you want world class piano player or someone who can get the job done). My brother plays sax and bass and very quickly picked up guitar, banjo, standup bass played psychobilly, and harmonica with complex guitar parts, and my favorite, the accordian. He grabs the damn thing and starts playing flogging molly from ear. I sat at a piano and figured out 2 songs by ear in like 30 minutes and I plan on picking up the flute. When you pick up a new instrument, you don't have to relearn how to be a musician. You only need to understand the instrument. however, I would do some research on some of the needed techniques.
