| I'm with Binx on the recommendation question. DS did have a recommendation from his HS music teacher, but he also had them from two private teachers AND the youth orchestra director (with whom he had worked for four years). No college specifically asked for a reference from the HS teacher.
Truth be known...I don't really think the letters of recommendation carry much weight in music admissions on the college level for auditioned programs. It's the audition. Period. |
