You must say 「私は三味線を弾く」 (わたし は しゃみせん を ひく)
「弾く」is the verb you use to say "to play" if the instrument is a string instrument like guitar or piano.
「演奏する」 mens to play music at a concert, to give representation. But you need to add "する". "演奏会" (えんそうかい) is a concert.
If you just want to say "to play music", you want to use 「奏でる」 (かなでる).
