We have found a LOT of skepticism and raised eyebrows regarding playing two instruments at a high level, and the expectation that it is both impossible to continue and highly discouraged. Singlemindedness, not compromise, seems to be the name of the game.

I cannot possibly imagine the way one could balance one instrument and sports, since at least in music, one can coordinate practice schedules,etc…Of course, this might be very possible at an LAC or university, but not at a music school.
