Reading Fill Blank
This is quite a big factor. A lot of instruments can be purchased in different price ranges, for
example, guitars. But this doesn't alter the fact that many, such as the piano, are always pretty
expensive. If you can't afford your chosen instrument, will you be able to borrow someone else's or
hire one?
Are there any physical limitations?
If you're small and don't like lifting heavy objects, you won't want to camy around a double bass.
Apart from that, use your common sense, and don't let your perceived physical shortcomings put you
off. Who says small skinny people can't play the tuba? It's true that some wind instruments require
a lot of lung power but with the right coaching, everyone can develop the right technique.
Still not sure?
Talk to people you know who already play instruments. They might even let you try theirs. It's also
a good idea to find an experienced music teacher, preferably one who plays a few different
instruments, who can give you some advice and push you in the right direction.
If you find an instrument you love and that suits your needs, you'll find the time spent choosing
was well worth it. Good luck with making your choice!
