[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a musical child, piano is the way to start! There is no other instrument that uses the right and left hand equally (and therefore the two halves of the brain), the full treble and bass clefs. Plus the mathematical beauty of music is evident in the structure of the piano itself! A kid can move to anything from the piano. But not the other way around. [/quote] I agree. I think piano is a great place to start to learn to read music. then the kids can take up another instrument (like a string or brass or wind instrument) in 4th grade when they can get lessons at school.[/quote] I third this. With some piano under their belts, they can easily move to try a variety of other instruments. Also learning music on piano makes musical structure so obvious. I was always playing in one clef or another, never both, with woodwinds. He goes to Bach2Rock & likes it.[/quote]
