I know what you mean; I just graduated from a school in Alpharetta, GA and our district borders the north metro Atlanta area. Sadly, even some of the directors carry this predudice and won't put kids from certain school in the honor orchestra because they think, "At that school they hook the tuba up at the other end of the body." This ignorance then gets spread to other members of the band until everyone thinks like that. It is a difficult issue, but how would recitals diminish interest? That is an iteresting train of thought...
