Re: Clarinet male vs female dominated

When I was in elementary school and we started band ca. 1978, girls were usually pushed towards woodwinds while boys towards brass. Trumepts and saxophones seemed to be a mix, with girls leaning toward alto and boys towards tenor sax. My impression back then was probably first and foremost simply due to carrying weight for instruments, as most kids at our elementary school had walks of around a mile or so. Can't imagine many 10 or 11 year-old girls would want to lug about a trombone or euphonium home on foot.
