It might help, too, if schools encouraged children to learn and play instruments other than band/orchestra ones. After all, the sousaphone (to pick a random example, with no offense intended to those who love the instrument) is hardly a good jamming instrument, or one that is endearing to neighbors late at night. Encouraging kids to explore folk music, bluegrass, old-time, jazz, etc. -- even rennaisance and early baroque -- genres that were developed and supported by and for players who played in their own homes for their own enjoyment and that of their close friends, rather than the concert/marching band stuff that was commissioned for paid professionals to play for passive listeners.
