Thank you Sunnydaze for that important and sensitive comment about teens. And this goes for even younger children too, who love music without premeditation. My childhood/teen instrument purchases , thanks to my dear grandmother's generosity and understanding that allowed me to access good instruments, were and have remained an enormous part of what makes me 'me' and brought me experiences and friendships I treasure still although I remain a simple amateur. I have tried to do the same for my children and grands. Much has been written about the benefits of collective music practices on socialization, empathy, tolerance and personal well-being. And I have seen the glow in the eyes of the very young Demos orchestra participants here in Lyon , France when they receive their instruments. They are in heaven ! They deserve the encouragement of good gear and good age adapted teaching that will help achieve and fix this positive experience as central to their beings and contribute to overall social well-being.
