Hi all,
Well, my username is "weeshan" for good reason. Im an adult female blessed with my Japanese father and petite mother's size. Seriously...I know a lot of women are small but think like the size of a 10 years old. 4'11" tall with hands so small that both of my tiny daughters had larger hands than me by the time they were 9 or 10. LOL
I own sopranos and love them all. They are the perfect size for me and even with the small size, I still struggle with some chords. But I also know I want to get something larger to add to my herd at some point. Mainly so that I have one larger instrument with more volume etc.
So I guess my question is...am I big enough for a tenor? Ive heard people say some chords are a stretch. Im stuck between just going with a concert, and worried I will regret it because there isnt a lot of size difference between it and a soprano...or getting a tenor and maybe regretting it because my hands wont reach.
I live in a small town without music shops so trying before I buy is likely not an option.
Any advice would be appreciated!
