hi
I currently play the b flat clarinet and am doing my grade 6 (abrsm) at the moment and in the future I aim to go on all the way until I have passed my grade 8,
I also play the flute as a second instrument which I have only been playing for a year and I am doing my grade 4. before starting to learn the flute as a second instrument I tried the saxophone but at this time my hands were very small (however I loved playing the instrument ). my parents say they cant afford for me to play 3 instruments and in the future I would like to go onto collage and university to study music and would like to be a music teacher, my parents say I can either give up flute and sell my flute and get a saxophone and start up saxophone again or carry on playing my flute ( along side my clarinet)
my questions are
if I was to give up flute and start sax again would it be wise to do up to grade 5 flute and then stop ?
do you think I should give up flute and start sax ?
I would like to be able to teach two instruments would it work well if I taught sax and clarinet ?
do I need grade 8 in sax and clarinet to be able to get into university to study music and then go on to teach ??
sorry its long (first post )
