[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are looking at strings, I highly recommend Pottter Violins. It's by far the best place and she can try out violas. Is she looking at band instruments at all? [/quote] What are band instruments? Tell me more about it? Id that for MS or HS? Required class or extra curricular activity? [/quote] In ES you have a choice of string instruments (usually violin, viola, or cello) or band instruments (there are more here and vary by school — but almost always include flute, clarinet, trumpet, and saxophone). My older kid loves band and my younger one orchestra — but kids generally start band instruments later because they need lung capacity, so with practice your kid can likely do well in the instrument despite not starting until late ES. With strings, some kids start early (every before K) so there are some really good players by the time 4th grade rolls around.[/quote]
