[quote=Anonymous]I too have wondered why Asian kids focus so heavily on piano and violin. You would think a few more would try horn or tuba or bassoon, all of which are desperate to find players. It’s a lot easier to get a bassoon spot at an Ivy League orchestra than it is a violin spot. My kid plays the French horn and she has really benefited from the lack of competition. She has a really good ear (honed through piano lessons and choir from a young age), and loves playing, but it’s also nice that it’s easier to be a “star” in her realm. To be a star violinist takes at least 2 hrs of practice a day by middle school and then more from then on. Not so for the more obscure instruments. [/quote]
