[quote=Anonymous]DS is musically inclined and has been playing piano pretty seriously for 3.5 years now. He is entering 4th grade can pick an instrument for one of the above. He also has to option of doing chorus along with one of band or orchestra. I'm leaving the individual instrument selection upto him but wanted to understand environment of each of these better. Neither DH nor I went to school in the US. I've read that band can provide more of an inbuilt social support as they grow up. DS doesn't play sports and would certainly benefit from that. He also has a great voice, did a theatre camp in the summer. Does chorus provide the voice training needed for that. Does doing band and chorus make their school schedule crazy or is this pretty routine? He plans to continue his piano lessons. I'm not crazy about adding another instrument. Does taking just chorus provide a similar social group or is that very girl heavy? Appreciate the inputs. [/quote]
