Peace,
Respect.

I don't know why, but Ode To Joy - by Beethoven - always brings tears to my eyes, as well as US anthem.
Clueless why but that's what happens.
I love music and when these students see how beautiful it is, they'll smile.

Peace.

First, Ode To Joy (aka Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee) was the intro song at my wedding processional. Second, we have the hadiths to blame for that insanity.

Why escape to a better life only to do this to your children?

Don't worry about it. Being talented in playing a guitar isn't very important.

It's all about the piano O0.

I don't have my headphones with me, so I can't hear what the baby is playing... but she is very cute and an excellent dancer D.

I think there are plenty of converts who would have their children pulled from lessons. What's sad is that this got into a national paper and might prompt many parents to do the same.

Yup.
I originally was stressed out about what I was going to do with my kids (this was a few years ago, when I was in a Sunni-mindset) when it came to school - like I wouldn't want them drawing pictures, doing anything music-related, etc. etc.

I play guitar. Not even going to say I'm an excellent player, I'm not. I have no formal training and cannot read notes or anything like that. However I can play some things I hear by reproducing it on the guitar. Not everything though, some stuff is very difficult to play just by hearing it.

Anyways, if you have a passion for learning it along with the patience you can become decent. Even though I didn't do it, I would recommend you learn it formally. I.e. how to hold the guitar and bridge (this is actually very important) how to use your fingers when playing (very important as well, you will realize why when it comes time to playing difficult songs) and reading notes, and formal chords (A,B,C etc.) and not just ridiculously simple power chords

lol how did that go over your head sis? It was pretty clever if you ask me.

Slow is definitely not good, that's for dang sure.

This is sad and sickening. Imho only people who have lost all connection with God and with their intuition can be brainwashed into believing that playing an instrument would be a sin.
nope

I used to play the piano and sadly had to stop due to not having enough space to put it and also because I was moving back and forth between two countries for years. But I know at some point in the future I will definitely take it up again. )
