Robot playing violin

Well, I think I want one: Violin-playing robot. The dexterity required to play a violin demonstrates how quickly robotics have advanced in the last decade. My first reaction is more to the effect of "that has to be a person!". And why do robots have to look like us? Why arms, legs, and a head? Is it for comfort, so we don't get too concerned that machines are overtaking us? I want a robot that looks completely unlike people. Where's the creativity?
