[quote=Anonymous]Mine used ES band to realize she loved her instrument, and made some reasonable progress in spite of a transition between two very good music teachers. When she decided to continue in MS, we purchased the instrument we’d been renting (paying a pro-rated price) and started private lessons, which she still takes as a junior playing in her HS jazz band. We could have started private lessons in ES, but they really weren’t necessary. I will say that this was for a low brass instrument. Strings tend to start earlier and be more intense and competitive, if you allow yourself to get sucked into that. Also, be aware that ES instrumental music isn’t a regular class; kids are pulled out of their regular classes a couple of times a week (IIRC) for section and ensemble work. Teachers try to work around it, but the kids are still responsible for making up the work. [/quote]
