Vieux, personally, I’m with you on the home schooling. Although I’d be the first to say that it’s terrific that families have choices in this country. I have known several for whom home schooling was the best option for their serious music study. Each family and student should decide for themselves.
I have to ask, if it’s not too personal… I love the screen name, but why Vieuxtemps5 in particular? Is it a favorite? I, myself, have great memories of the work – gorgeous and short- an entire concerto in the same time as the first movement of others! Much better than Vieuxtemps4. But, why not Wieniawski1 (as opposed to Wieniawsksi2) or Prokofiev1 (my favorite) vs. Prokofiev2? Or how about a simple Glazunov or Conus (did you avoid that one, my S did!).
Seriously, best of luck to you. I hope everything works out. The decisions that you are looking at are tough…
