I will let him/her try as long as they told me that they like. If he/she love it, they can manage, don't worry. Or may be they like violin but not piano at the end.
My kids learn 2 instructment in the same time too, they both love so much and they will have both exam in every single year.
I think is better to let them start and finish all exam before secondary.
achow,
Your children are very smart ar, can learn and take exam for 2 instruments per year!

He told me he only like music. Last Friday he told me he don't want to go to school, but stay at home watch TV.
He said the only thing he like in school is school band and music lesson.
But I told him for all the musician must know how to speak english, if not, how can you communicate with the other musician from the rest of the country.
And most of the school band kids who respresent the school must be good in school marks-at lease Chinese, Math and english must be 70marks and up.
I bring him to see the Phycologist, they found out he have concerate problem and ask me to give him medicine for 3 years. They will check his IQ next week. So worry..............

I wonder whether your boy really got concentration problem as he can sit still concentrating and playing musical instrument well. Maybe, for safe, you can re-confirm with another psychologist because taking the pills for so long a time would have side effects. Which doctor or centre have you visited? Are they qualified practitioners? which test has the psychologist conducted for your son to have such conclusion?
About concentration problem - heard that can be improved by taking food containing omega-3.
If your boy is so interested in music, maybe you can take a look at ICQM (國際基督教優質音樂小學). It got more music lessons/trainings and performances, and according to my son's piano teacher (her daughter is studying at there), the teachers there are loving and good.
My 5 years-old boy is also very naughty - he tell lies and make many troubles
