The best way to choose an instrument is to hold it and try it out. You can do this at one of our Instrument Tryout and Rental events. A music teacher will help guide you through this decision.
You should like how the instrument sounds. Watch the videos that have the instruments you are thinking about in them.
Imagine holding and carrying the instrument. Do you like the idea of practicing this instrument?
Think you'll be getting braces? Don't let that affect your decision. Lots of kids play band instruments with braces - it takes some getting used to but is not a reason not to play any instrument.
Don't pick an instrument just because your best friend did! Pick your own favorite. You will see your friends in the music groups no matter what instrument they play.
