Thanks, everyone.

It is not normal for me to brag like this, but its a rare event. I actually have 2 artistic, right-brained, left-handed sons. Both are very talented, but one is unable to focus that talent, and works with me in soils and foundation engineering & inspections, so I see him almost every day. Thats cool, too.

The musician has taken several auditions and always seems to place second. When they only take one, second just doesn't cut it. He gets down after losing like that, but after a day or two is back to himself. I did sales for a while and know all about rejection.
If he takes a teaching position, it will be at a college/university. He was looking at a HS position, but it would have required him to leave his position at the Haddonfield Symphony, and quit all his free-lance work. Since playing his horn is his chief joy, that position would have killed him, inside.

I have confidence that he will hook up somewhere. I'm just an impatient parent who wants success right now!

Thank you all for listening, and sharing my joy.
