It would not. Water does not carry sound very well.

It would. Liquid water transmits sounds fantastically, given that the sound does not transition between air and water. Ice is H2O locked into a crystalline formation, and not only reflects sounds superbly, but also will resonate when vibrated accordingly. This means that an ice violin would be very clear sounding and would produce an interesting and unique sound. The trick would be stopping the 'strings' from snapping, however magic ice -Elsa's- would probably have little to no problem there. In real life, the ice strings would snap if too much pressure was applied, so they would have to be drawn across very delicately.
