| If I could go all the way back to fifth grade I would have chosen the trombone over the euphonium, especially seeing now how it is considered easier to get a pro orchestral trombone job, than it is to get a premier euphonium military job.
Gong back just a few years, I would probably have visited more campuses my junior year and met with the teachers. I also probaby shuld have just looked out of state too, seeing as how I never go home much as it is now, it wouldn't have been a problem to be out of state. And I would have looked at the music schools at bigger universities that I was too scared to look at before. Now I realize even if the university is big, the music school is usually a pretty small size. Also, I would have applied to more programs such as Johns Hopkins/Peabody and Eastman/Rochester to have more classes in the liberal arts. |
