our history

DS-2. karate guy, ok in school, some LD/ADD issues. trumpet player soloist -hs marching band, jazz band etc. Stopped in college. BA from Rutgers. Just got JD from Seton Hall Law, passed NY NJ bar, has wonderful first job. (yeah!!!)
DD-21. senior at Juilliard. started trumpet in 3rd grade to be like DS. Great at academics, also trained karate. youth orchestra player, did regions only 8th grade and 12th. Went to Kinhaven Camp (wonderful for her) and one summer - per teacher suggestion-at Interlochen before auditions. Now about to look at masters programs, along with auditioning for orchestra positions.
DD-17. longtime cello player with great local teacher. would never play professionally, take classes in college etc. Wants to major in anthropology. (aggh-not many schools) She needs small classes, nice, friendly non-snob students, we need low cost after fin. aid.
Check out youtube videos for some funny bits by the Juilliard Horn section.
Financial aid at J-yard is dependent on playing, need of instrument, and EFC etc. That said, I have been told that more $ offered to masters degree students.
