Here's a different twist. I have a bulletin board that has questions printed on the front of a card which is tacked to the bulletin board. On the inside is the answer with a clip art pic of the instrument.

The cards say such things as:

Who played saxophone with the Colorado Symphony? (answer inside - Our Vice Principal, Mr. __!)
Who played trombone in the Army Band? (Our music teacher, Mr. B)
Who taught music in far off Arabia? (Our music teacher, Mrs. Park)
Which teacher played the trumpet in elementary school? (Grade 5 teacher...) etc.,

This approach doesn't require pictures and is still fun for kids to guess at.
