How important are grades in non core classes?

DS just found out his grade dropped from a B+ to B for orchestra. He has been in orchestra through all three years of high school. He will likely end up with a B for the semester. Music is one of his major ECs, and he is interested in pursuing a music minor in college. Will it look odd that he has this one B, while his prior grades in orchestra were A's? I won't get into why the grade dropped, but trust me, it is for a very petty reason. Orchestra grades are not calculated as part of his high school GPA, but it will still appear on his transcript.
