| Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin. Its conservatory is well-regarded, and Lawrence is one of the "colleges that change lives."
You might want to check out Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. Its Music school, too, is reputed to do a good job training and nurturing singers ... and the school as a whole isn't an academic powerhouse, but my impression is that the faculty is dedicated to the learning process. It kind of slips under the radar, but anybody I've spoken to who has direct knowledge of the place praises it highly. |
