<p>kbjesq, there are a number of options available, and it is most wise to start with instructor selection. Audition based programs are a crapshoot, and no one is guaranteed. You’ve been offered suggestions that range from conservatory BM programs to BA options in small LAC music departments. It’s important you and d know and realize the difference focus and levels of intensity between the two. </p>
<p>The expertise in the music major forum is extensive. I urge you to seek some options there. </p>
