Re: Is it suitable for a 6yrs old boy to learn 長號
Dear TYL,
I don't know why, but just have another view of music_teacher.
If you are really a trombone teacher, you won't ask people to start on Trumpet, since they are not in same ways of producing sounds. Their method are different. If a child is too young / small, why not simply consider a Sorpano Trombone, since the major issue to a trombonist is the silding, not the mouthpiecing.
Indeed, for wind/brass, it's always good to start with the best instrument. For an usually trombonist, they will get the Tenor Trombone as the start. The highest level of a Tenor Trombone will be what you said - around $8K. The major difference between them are the 手工. Most higher class brass will be handmade, and the polishing will be better. My friend who is also a trombonist said, when the time he start learning Trombone, he only got a $4K Yamaha student model, and was a hard time to him. Right now what he have is a Bass Trombone at around $22K.
Parsons' Trombone is not worth their price. Most of them are chinese made - at that price, consider a Yamaha would be better. And your child will hate learning Trombone when you just giving them those "TOY" - they shouldn't be named as instrument.
Lastly, what I consider for a child whether he is ready or not -- not the height but the energy. Holding a trombone might also be hard / difficult to an adult, it will be a hard work to little child. Remember, that's a brass, not some woods/ paper. You will need to hold it for 1 or more hours for practising or lesson, and other some hours for traveling for lessons. And don't forget if you are going to have performace / exams, you have to travel with your trombone. A tough work will be.
Let share more, or PM me if you need. |
