You are on something.

I am getting this impression from some posters on this board that somehow the music education program at the elementary school level isn't good enough for their kids.  If that is the case, why don't you just have them take private lessons instead of slum it at the school with the rest of the riff-raff?

Look, my only point was that one doesn't automatically need to have supplemental music lessons when they are just getting used to an instrument.  If a child wants to take their music education on a particular instrument further, by all means, look into extra lessons and time.

Let the kid try it first, rent the instrument and do the music lessons at school.  Encourage them to practice for a given time per week.  They'll know soon enough if they have a talent in this area or not.[/quote]
