What’s the Right Age to Begin Music Lessons?

Not too old, and never too young! What is the perfect age to start music lessons? Is 3 years too early? Is a double digit age too late? The answer is not a simple yes or no, and it all depends on the child, the parents, and the goals you have. According to various types of research, from birth to 9 years of age is the optimal "window of learning". If you have a young Mozart on your hand, you could even start "formal" lessons by the age 3!
