DD2 is Y6 and has been learning the trombone for 4 years- she is sitting her Grade 3 and plays in school band with the borough Young Musicians.
She'll be 11 in July, and transferring to secondary school in September. She going out of Borough, so will have to hand back her Music Service trombone and we will have to buy her one.
The one she has at the moment has an extra button (?) to help her reach C ( I think), it's definitely smaller than the ones I see her playing next to for young musicians.
Has anyone got any advice for us about how much to spend, what size would see her through to at least grade 5? She will be having lessons at secondary school and we expect her progression to be better as she will be taught 121, not in a group as she is at the moment.
