Thanks, SpiritManager! She’s not into doing the conservatory route. We toured Bard, though not their conservatory, and she liked the idea of a music BA there. She spent a couple of weeks at Eastman’s high school jazz program last summer. Fun experience but, again, we’re not sure she should opt for Rochester, given the negatives of the locale, without the Eastman component. At Oberlin, which we’ve toured and loved, the hope is that she could take lessons through the con without being a BM student. Hadn’t heard about Williams, will check out. Wesleyan seems very appealing, a reach though, I think. The others are on our radar, especially Skidmore. Need to check out whether percussion is strong there.
