There have been some excellent posts, I especially agree with the "less-than-10%-go-on" statements, that basically VERY few HS players chose to become performance (or even Music Ed.) majors in college. I a studuent in HS is considering purchase of a personal horn, I agree with people like the Lurker and the BBS owner when they advocate purchase of a CC.
This will give the HS student a big jump on their study of the repertoir in college. Additionally, I am rather "old school" now with regards to F tuba. As I recall (way back when) F tuba was something a performance major started working with (if at all) during their Jr/Senior year of college. That makes more sense to me now than ever before, f.w.i.w.
