If I take up the piano by Christmas, how long will it take for me to get in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra?

13-15 years.

You mean just starting playing the piano for the first time in your life? Give me a break. At LEAST 10 years.

10+ years unless you are a prodigy.

you rich? why wait?

Years...

I've been playing 9 years; I'm not ready.. You better be a fast learner... stop trying to impress women

A very very long time.

depends on when you buy tickets
