[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Flute first, then clarinet. Maybe I just think that because I have a piano background, so the sequential fingering makes sense to me. [/quote] My kid couldn’t play the flute, which I do. She can’t memorize things well and the fingerings just weren’t going well. Then flutes have melody parts which were too fast for her. She switched to a harmony instrument: the viola. No embousure to worry about. But now she knows Alto clef, not very transferable. Younger sister learned the flute and two octaves in one months time. Totally different kids. Perfusion or marimba could be quite easy. If your kid has lung capacity they could t try a brass instrument, then decide melody (trumpet) or harmony (French horn, tuba, trombone). Once one knows piano the woodwinds could be quite easy if you can memorize the fingerings. Oboe is toughest to get a good sound out of- has an expensive double reed.[/quote]
