  3. My daughter (also 10) plays the trombone.
    Our two dogs howl each time she attempts any semblance of music.

  4. HILARIOUS!!! I can only see this in my future, the 11 year old just started band and is in a toss-up between the sax and trumpet.
    Hope there were no injuries - to you or the clarinet. :-)
