If I may be permitted an anecdote:
One of my youngest daughter's friends is a bit of a rebel. He dies his
hair phosphorescent red+green. He wears bright yellow & orange & blue
& green clothes, all at once. And he plays 'air guitar' and talks
about the 'bad band' that he's going to create some day. And so forth.
....well, last month I heard him playing some music for the first time.
He was dressed in black (including polished shoes & black socks) and he
was wearing a black baseball cap without insignia in order to cover up
his hair. He played cello! And he was serious about it! If you
didn't know more about him, you'd imagine that Yo Yo Ma was his role
model.
He also played very well. That's what music education is about.
