Glad to know it. I think your parents were well-known beforehand about the other fields than music that can settle your life. Being academically strong they could sense what in the future is good for you.

I also think that you could have excelled at this musical career had your parents supported you in first place and you were ready to put much of your dedication in it. There could have either been success very early or at late phase or no success at all. There are many unexpected turns in life. Some lead to good paths some may not.
