 Re: How do the Finns do it?!

There is a very comprehensive system of music institutes round Finland where children can get musical education including private instrument lessons right from the beginning with a quite modest annual fee. State and cities support the institutes financially.

And there are over twenty professional symphony or chamber orchestras in Finland, most of them doing lots of work visiting schools, organising school concerts, visiting places where people tend to be etc.

The big challenge is first of all to get children interested in music as a hobby. They are so interested in other things nowadays! Also in our time, when there are so many especially right wing politicians, that are so worried, that "do we afford the services of a wellfare state", to secure the funding.

Just watched the movie "the big short" yesterday, so the amount of money seems not to be the problem in the world, the problem is that the money is stuck in pockets, that you can't get it out of...
