you mean switch from band to another elective?  tell them this:\n\nthe best reason why anyone would switch from band to another elective would be because they don't enjoy playing an instrument, not because there's a new teacher.

Well, that's pretty simple actually. For the Horn, it would be in E, c#; strings, no transposition; Trumpet & Clarinet, B, g#; Oboe & Bassoon, no transposition; Trombones, no transposition; Tuba, C, a; Flute, no transposition.\n\nnote: some Tubas are B-flat tubas, and then you would transpose to B, g#.

If you are educated in music, such as knowing the names of the notes, rhythms, etc...  you can definately learn a new instrument quickly, especially the piccolo.  I went to college for music education and I had a two weeks to learn each instrument in order to teach it to students.  The flute and piccolo are in my opinion, the easiest to learn.  Just stay focused and practice, practice, practice!!! Good luck.

get to an independant music shop and play til you find one that feels right for you-yamaha pacifica series are good and tanglewoods are affordable-if you cant play at all then buy a fender sqire series-cheap and versatile and not too much of an investment if you aint feelin the rock!with all guitars you will need a pedal to get those sounds-no guitars come with it built in-if you want to do it pc based then get a line 6 gear box-millions of ace sounds and comes complete with a recording studio to show off your efforts to your mates/family etc-about £130 but essential purchase-also- practice practice practice-theres no substitute for it unless you have a hitherto undiscovered god like genius on the geeetar-best of luck and keep on rockin brother

Don't buy something crappy, because if you do, you're going to be stuck with a crappy toy when you want to make real music.  \n\nThe toys don't hold their resale value.\n\nAn Instrument on the other hand, does.\n\nI'd recommend a Korg Karma.. It's a step below the mighty triton, but still packs a good punch for the price..\n\nYou can probably find one on e-bay used.

Yamaha. As high up the range as you can afford. Look at around £200 / $300 for a nice one, and anything higher is a bonus.

They all have equally simple and challenging aspects.  Beginning on sax is difficult because it is easy to make a sound, but hard to make a good sound.  If you want to learn sax, try playing clarinet for a couple years first.  Then switch to alto sax.  Tenor sax almost requires experience on the alto sax to be played well.  Baritone sax is the same way.  Trumpet is a good beginner instrument, but becomes more difficult as time goes on (as does any instrument).  Cello or any string instruments are probably the hardest, although they require no breathing development, unlike any of the other instruments you mentioned.  I have little experience with bagpipes, although I recall that usually a young bagpipe player will purchase a smaller practice instrument in order to learn the fingerings and develop breath control.

those three instruments are actually the only three instruments that i have ever been interested in. sadly im lazy and have given up on all three. my recommendation is the piano though... this is only because from what i hear "if you learn to play the piano it makes it a lot easier to play almost any other instrument" or thats what i hear anyway. point is regardless of wether u choose it or not. anything is better than nothing because its better to get urself at least used to reading music and what different notes sound like etc. u can always change to a different instrument later... also someone said that guitar chicks are hot... actually any girl that plays an instrument that can be in a rock band is sexy. :-D
