Very informative posts! Thank you! College is such an important developmental time I would hate my kiddo to think it is all or none with music. My wish for my daughter is to mature into a decent, kind adult (preferably capable of paying her own bills, in time). My hope is that a vocal performance degree is the grease for that process. If it later pays the bills, great. If not, she can join the rest of us. I work in a mental health office and one of our therapists majored in voice. So, like a liberal arts degree, I think music study can prepare a person for many jobs. Side note, when she was in her chamber choir in HS, she would sometimes sing with the tenors. Just not enough boys.
