[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The flute.  Really.  [/quote]

Hmm, I don't agree.  Flute sounds screechy until someone learns to play it well.

They all sound terrible until you learn to play them well. I started clarinet at 9 and it took probably a good 2-3 months of daily practice before I could make a sound without squeaking. I went on to be pretty good, but it was definitely a frustrating beginning. Lots of crying and gnashing of teeth. 
 
She should just pick what she likes and give it at least a year of solid practice. As in at least 30 mins every day, preferably 60. I agree with those who say the brass instruments may not be best for a kid who is not musically inclined, but there's no reason why, even if she isn't particularly talented, she shouldn't be able to master the basics of whatever she picks and play decently in the orchestra. She won't get the solo parts but that's ok. And you never know, if she works hard she may pick up some musicality, even if she never sings on key. At the least it will be a good experience for her.[/quote]
