How will I know if my child has musical talent?
You probably won’t. Anyway, it doesn’t really matter.
The answer to the “Does My Child Have Musical Talent” question is it doesn’t matter.
The reason: It’s not a question that will give your child the positive experience you want her to have with music.
A better question might be: “once the initial excitement of the shiny new violin has passed, what then?”
Well, if you’ve chosen well as a parent, each struggle, each failure along the path will make you wiser and stronger. Better yet…
Your child will gain strength, self respect and the tools to succeed in life. It’s a belief system that will support her, even in situations where others are unable to cope.
We don’t need more violinists. But people with such success skills are always in demand.
