If your child has shown a real interest in music, you may wish to support them in pursuing and developing that passion by encouraging them to start learning an instrument and, naturally, here at Wessex Tubas, we would recommend learning how to play a brass instrument!

The benefits of learning to play a brass instrument are vast, particularly for children, as they continue to grow and develop with every day that passes.

These benefits include:

  • Increasing their memory
  • Giving them a sense of responsibility
  • Increasing their social & communication skills
  • Fostering their sense of self-expression
  • Encouraging and developing team building skills
  • Developing time management & organisational skills
  • Increasing confidence through a sense of achievement

Which Tuba is best for a child starting out?

Choosing the right Tuba for your child is so important to their overall enjoyment of the new venture ahead; helping them to feel comfortable, confident and - above all else - that they’re happy with their instrument, and the plethora of newfound skills that come with it.

Finding that instrument - the one perfectly suited to your child’s needs - doesn’t have to be a daunting task, but you will have to consider the following:

  1. Their age
  2. Their physical size
  3. Their standard of playing
