It is a pity the public schools have abandoned arts training; Or any special training for the talented in any skill but competitive sports. I received a supurb musical education in high school, on a school supplied instrument, with private lessons available on my instrument in the band hall for money I made myself mowing lawns. We played a lot of classics, to a supurb levelf of competence in the top band of four. I thank my parents for researching the options and moving to that neighborhood with that great public school system. Dad would have made lots more money working in that tiny mining camp where I was born. Enjoy your musical education, even if you have to commute to do it.
