You should start him out on Classical, and 40s and 50s big bands and the like, then work into the sixties.

I like my Bose noise-cancelling headphones, but I'd hesitate to recommend them to 11-year-old boys. If they didn't wreck them by being rough with them they'd probably get hit by a bus/car/taxi/streetcar/train while walking with them on.
