Piano player birth chart

As you can see, he is a Pisces ascendant with the ascendant lord Jupiter placed in the 2nd house in the sign of Aries. When the sign of Aries falls on the 2nd house it is like > Mars in Taurus < as in the default zodiac the sign of Taurus falls on the 2nd house, and Aries and Mars are just the same things.

Mars in Taurus is quite associated with the playing of musical instruments and now when planets like Jupiter and Mars are placed in the sign of Aries in the 2nd house this is giving an indication of enjoyment through some kind of motion (as Aries is a sign of motion and vibrations).

Since Venus (default ruler of the 2nd house) is placed in the sign of Cancer in the 5th house of fun & entertainment this is giving the indication of pleasure through emotional fun & entertainment and playing some kind of musical instrument is also the way for that. Cancer is a sign of emotions and Venus in Cancer is like emotional enjoyment (as Venus is a planet of enjoyment and sensual pleasures) and music is also a way for that.

When Venus is in Cancer it makes a person emotional by heart (as Venus represents the heart) and then the emotions could also be expressed through playing music or even singing. Sun is a planet of fun & entertainment and Sun is also placed in the sign of Cancer in the 5th house of fun & entertainment and so Sun is also giving an indication of having fun through expressing emotions.

Mercury in the sign of Gemini in the 4th house is giving an indication of using the skills of hands and since the default ruler of the 4th house > Moon < is placed in the sign of Libra it is again giving an indication of arts, creativity, or music as Libra is the major sign of arts, creativity, and music.

So, the skills of hands are being used in some kind of creativity, arts, and music as Mercury is placed in the sign of Gemini which represents the skills of hands and also Mercury is placed in the 4th house whose default ruler is Moon and Moon is in Libra in the 8th house and Libra is a major sign known for music, dance, arts, creativity, etc.

Rahu is also the major indicator of what the person will be obsessed with in life and his Rahu is placed in the sign of Taurus (Rohini Nakshatra) in the 3rd house of > skills of hands & communication. Taurus is a major sign of sensual pleasures and creativity and when the sign of Taurus falls in the 3rd house it becomes creativity through the skills of hands and while playing the piano skills of hands are needed for generating fun through music played via piano (a musical instrument).

When a piano is played emotional sound is generated and the sign of Gemini is the sign known for sound as it is a sign of communication and when the air particles communicate or vibrate then the sound is generated. So, Mercury placed in the sign of Gemini is giving some kind of clue for the generation of sound and this sound is related to music this is confirmed that Moon, default ruler of the 4th house, is placed in the sign of Libra which is a sign of music, dance, design, and creativity.

Also, the planet Saturn is placed in the sign of Scorpio in the 9th house and so the actual action is in the sign of Scorpio and Mars rules the sign of Scorpio and as I mentioned earlier Mars is placed in the 2nd house which is like > Mars in Taurus < and this placement of > Mars in Taurus is well known for the playing of musical instruments as it is like putting energy and efforts in generating pleasure or fun. So, this chart makes perfect sense for a Piano player or some other musical instrument such as the harmonium.

Saturn represents the tools and the keys of the Piano are like the tools here and Scorpio is the vibration in the keys as Scorpio is a turbulent sign (the sign of vibrations or ups and downs).
