[quote=Anonymous]There are no requirements beyond an art elective for MCPS graduation. This does not need to be in music. She can try different instruments every year she's in orchestra or band, but this also means she will have to learn how to use them every time. A little thing about string instruments. Violas rarely play the melody, and almost always play the accompaniment. So do second violins and sometimes cellos. The first violins usually have the melody. At first, this will not matter at all. But over the years, she might not like it. Or she might - it depends on her temperament. I have a violin-playing kid who loves being the center of musical attention, and who would never want to play seconds or violas for that reason. [/quote]
