Arduino UNO reading from the USB port

So again another issue, I'm really new to Arduino, but I have had some basic experience with a few programming languages, however, it is not very advanced.

I've searched on YouTube and Google for help but I can't find any.

I have an Arduino Uno, is it possible to read MIDI data from a piano with the Arduino. I've seen videos with the old MIDI cable, but I have a USB A to USB B piano and I can't find anything on reading MIDI data with that directly.

Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

To do that you would need to add a USB Host shield onto your Arduino.
