Rice University Navigating Music Careers link. A lot of great advice on what to do with that music degree.

I didn't know where to post this. 3 Violinists and a Cello (I think) show a whimsical enjoyment of their music as well as some noteworthy agility and concentration.

Organ links

Most important:

American Guild of Organists: American Guild of Organists Includes accredited colleges, teen organ camps, scholarship information.

Also fun: Organ Historical Society: Organ Historical Society (Good place to find information about organs in your area.)

Young hip organist: CAMERON CARPENTER | the official site

From a link in CC's financial aid forum Music Scholarships

I did a very quick run through, and seemed to be a lot of the same that's available on most of the scholarship search engines such as fastweb, but it is well worth probing.

I've been using musictheory.net for quite a while to do eartraining (the chords trainer has been incredibly helpful; it's like a patient friend who will generate as many chords as you need and asks you to identify them, and even tells you which ones you get most often mixed up).

VARIATIONS Prototype: Online Musical Scores has a lot of major works for reference.

McGill Schulich School of Music Prof Profiles

McGill recently posted videos of many of the Schulich School teachers speaking about their backgrounds and teaching philosophies. For those considering McGill, these are a good way to "meet" some of the instructors. Reading a bio can only tell you so much!

Searching for youtube schulich school of music prof profile along with the prof's name should lead you to the appropriate video. Be sure to include the "of music" as there are a few Schulich Schools. Interestingly, I can't find any links to these new videos on the Schulich website.

I have seen similar videos from Oberlin and I'm sure other schools have them, as well.

guitar performance programs

my son, 17, is interested in finding a program that is strictly performance based. His grades would probably prevent him from attending a degree school but has the talent and drive to enroll in a certificate program similar to Music Institute in LA. I was hoping for something more East coast. Any suggestions
