No to this whole thread.
School bands typically suck at actually playing, since they rely on everyone around them to play better and louder than one in question, hoping the poorly-tuned instrument will be drowned out...
And Choir for the same reason.
On top of that, everyone who has participated in either seems to gain an elitist ego towards music. "DERR I WUZ IN BEND SO I NO MUSC SO GTFO"
Here's an idea kids: Go pick up an instrument you like and play that. In the manner you see fit. In the way you want. And who you want to play with. Hell, I've been playing bass [Four-string] since I was twelve, and I get better progressively, as well as being able to play openly, not hoping nobody will notice how terrible I am and that they hear how awful everyone else is around me.
1 – PokeRemixStudioThat's a difficult decision. I come from both worlds. Choir is somewhat easier, but band can be more rewarding. I switched from band to choir because MY band was just downhill fast with diminishing quality, drama (not the good kind), and issues with the director's health. Choir is showing a lot more promise.
I prefer band because I just don't think I can sing and I don't like singing in public. Sometimes when people catch me singing, they tell my that I have a good voice. I am not courageous to sing in front of people. Plus, being a band geek is kinda fun. I was born into being a band person. My mom and my dad both played trumpet. They handed me a trumpet and I played and played, I began to prefer band over singing then.
