No disrespect to anyone, but I did just want to mention that most of the players in the Philharmonic lookeed to be of Asian descent. Black people, put your kids in some classes - and make them stay there!
My parents had me in piano and clarinet classes, and in high school I played the French Horn. Seeing them onstage made me wish I still did, but I tell you once you learn and appreciate music like that it never leaves. I was close enough to the stage to read their music notes. I know when I start to make the big bucks I will be a supporter of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and the DIA (our art museum). Cultural experiences can really have a profound impact on children and on the vibrancy of a city.
