If the kid is not in HK, ~10 years old
If the kid is in HK, whatever age the parents want!

Why would the location make a difference?

Clarinet because it is inexpensive;
Oboe because it sounds beautiful, and not too many people play  ...

Clarinet is much more affordable.  Besides, we never know for how long the child can keep up his interest in the instrument.  But oboe does sound more beautiful.  Heard it's more difficult to learn too.

 Beside, even if the child stops learning, the instrument is not a write-off - you can always sell it.

agree. the instrument price vs tuition fee is far incomparable, unless one buys it and takes only just a few lessons and quits.

回覆 Oboe_FRSM 的帖子

I regret that I haven't taken into consideration factors like history and sound when choosing an instrument because I knew nothing about it. After watching a demonstration of different instruments, my child picked three and tried them (sorry oboe was not on her list).  Clarinet suits her as she could produce a sound naturally and easily at first try.

好多小學都要求小朋友學一樣樂器，我見好多小一生已經開始學管樂

題外話，想請教一下，如果想讓K1 的小朋友接觸一下樂器，那一類樂器較為合適呢？
