I was never encouraged to do it and I played the accordion, which I hated. I wish I had taken piano because I definitely would have written more songs of my own, but I didn’t.

Meaning of the quote

Connie Francis, a famous American musician, wished she had learned to play the piano instead of the accordion. She didn't enjoy playing the accordion, and if she had learned the piano, she believes she would have been able to write more of her own songs. However, she was never encouraged to learn the piano, so she ended up playing an instrument she disliked.
