Getting an instrument

Parents need to provide an instrument for their child.

​

If you already have an instrument, by all means bring it along to the first lesson.

​

Otherwise we recommend waiting until you have met the teacher.

Many instruments have different sizes and options, and your new 

teacher will be able to provide guidance on what your child needs.

​

We DO NOT recommend buying a cheap instrument

from Amazon, Wish, or similar websites.

​

The quality is often so poor the instruments are not playable

and your child will not be able to make a good sound - very discouraging!

​

There are several reputable music shops in Cambridge

who can assist with purchasing or renting an instrument:
