[quote=Anonymous]I play classical and started at age 6. I studied with recording artists. Let me tell you that for piano - age 8 is not too late to start. Piano is an instrument that does not require age 5 or 6 to start. I'm teaching my kids and I'm not even starting them. My son is 7. I prob won't based on his personality until 8. My daughter just turned 5 and loves music. I won't start her until 6. I'm NOT worried. They won't start liking it until later. I hated it until I was like 9 (started at age 5). Hated it all the while I was winning contests. Quit at 17. Came back to it on my own in college and taught for awhile. Love it now. A lot of your serious performers didn't hit it until about 7-8. Unless your kid is a prodigy don't worry about starting them before age 6 or so. Start gymnastics early, start ice skating early. Don't start piano and instruments too early! Good luck! [/quote]
