How to choose an instrument
We are often asked, "Which instrument should my child play?" or "Which instrument is the easiest?". Every instrument has aspects that present challenges to beginning students so there are no "easy" or "hard" instruments.

When a child has a connection to the sound of the instrument they are more motivated to practice and improve.
