[quote=Anonymous]I am the OP. I feel that my daughter dreads practicing her string instrument and only wants to do the bare minimum to make her teacher happy. Her teacher puts a lot of pressure and her and is an accomplished musician. But she sings freely and joyfully when she is alone and seems to get more joy from it. That said, she doesn’t have any pressure from singing since she doesn’t take weekly lessons or do anything that imposes demands on her.. many of her friends are in the orchestra crowd and she likes all the folks in the group and she has gotten to play in the school’s highest middle school orchestra with the older kids so that is fun for her. There are times that I feel that practicing a string instrument alone is just a drag! And you really must practice a string instrument whether you are an elite or even a less than elite level, whereas I am not sure that being in a choir requires as much individual practice.[/quote]
