請問是否一定要買新樂器？

Hihiha

仔仔即將加入CKY大家庭，9月讀小一。收到學校通知買樂器，去琴行一睇要成萬蚊。如果仔仔俾心機學下去都無所謂，但最怕佢學學下話唔啱要轉，就會好浪費。有無過來人意見參考下？謝謝指教！

No, it's saxaphone.  When we chose saxaphone, price was not on our mind.  We only consulted our boy and he seemed to be interested in this instrument (although he has never learned it before).  We have no problem in buying a brand new instrument if he will use it for a couple of years.  I just don't want to see the instrument stuck in my house if he finds it unsuitable in a few months' time.

Can your boy change to clarinet, the technique is almost the same.(If you play clarinet, you could play  saxo.) It also plays an important part of the wind band so the clarinet player can joins any of the five orchestral bands and wind band if he is capable. It is not so heavy as saxo. and much cheaper.(less than 2K)

Thanks very much for all your useful advice.  I will discuss with the school.

樂器係好貴,但好可惜CKY係冇樂器租,如果選了萬多元的樂器,而又樂意接受,就要努力學啦 ...希望小朋友學有所成,有機會在校或外面參加樂團,而不是自彈自唱...否則這重大投資就

clarinet 以外,可以選 flute, 入門都是2-3K,又或者選string 的 violin

又或者手鈴,最多是買對手套加本快勞,或者留兩三個bottles來練習用.

My girl will join CKY this September too.  We need to buy a Bassoon and we have checked that it takes about 40K to buy one.  Do you know anywhere to buy a second hand one?  Can anyone give me some advices?  My girl already said she doesn't like Bassoon.

do we need to buy the instrument before the school start?  My friend called them and said the school can borrow the percussion instrument to the children in school, the families can buy it and practise it at home, right?

The school said can get the instrument before the first instrument class starts which is around mid Sep.
I've also checked the recommended instrument's price, it costs much higher than the average, perhaps the recommended models are the best in quality. According to a friend, she bought a cheaper one last year, she said it is just a suggested model but not compulsury.
