[quote=Anonymous]The "instrument petting zoo" many schools host is wonderful. Google "how to choose instrument" and there is some very interesting data about physical characteristics that can be helpful for different instruments as well (like it really helps to be long-limbed from trombone, lips of a certain size for tuba or flute). Flute appears easy but it isn't that easy getting the right noise out of it. Clarinet can be hard for many kids to blow into because of the reed. For French Horn, most schools want kids with some prior musical background (like piano). Oboe, bassoon, tuba, piccolo, etc., come after solid learning on clarinet, euphonium, flute, etc. Just don't say "You'll play the flute" if you have a flute in the attic! Lesson learned here.[/quote]
