The answer

Earning from musical instruments is forbidden. However, if a person reaches a state of dire necessity and cannot find any other work, such that they fear perishing or causing those they support to perish, then it is hoped that they will be excused, while still being obligated to search for lawful work. Allah knows best the specific circumstances of the questioner.
