<p>I applaud your curiousity for music, but tell us more what you want to do w/ your physics and what you want to do with your music and maybe we can help better. Skip the comments on politics as that probably belongs on another thread or classroom. If you are at a school that focuses on band/orch/choir you may have to focus on getting what you can out of learning one instrument more deeply, and/or take other music classes like theory, ear training, harmony and/or music technology to learn more about music in general. You can always teach yourself other instruments later when you have more time, but the theory and other music classes could give you a stronger base. I don’t believe you can minor in music performance, at least at the schools that I know. If you are trying to learn 5 instruments and vocals, you won’t have a chance to become performance level on any one of them because you’ll be spread too thin.</p>
