Hi,
I must admit I've always been a tad dissapointed that my 2 sons showed absolutely no interest in playing music.
There'd always been a piano in the home since before they were born.
Had a piano teacher come to the home to give them lessons when they were about 7 & 10, eventually gave up when we used to have to coax the 7 year old ( in tears) out from under the baby grand. They both just hated playing, and I wasn't going to force lessons on them.
By the time they reached their teens I'd discovered a whole new world of music
" synthesizers & computer sequencers " the type of equipment the rock bands were using.
The sons musical friends wanted me to adopt them ( haahaa) they were fascinated by it all. The younger son decided he'd like to learn guitar so he could play in a band with the rest of his friends (unlike me, he could actually play by ear) Again, it didn't last long. The boys had a falling out, the guitar ended up in the cupboard.
I tend to think an interest in playing music has got to come from within one's self. The boys both love music. They enjoy music ranging from the 60's ( way before they were born) right through to modern day Dance music. The younger one even enjoys 40's swing music. But as to wanting to actually play it, the answer is NO.
