<p>Can anyone tell me about the music program at UCSC? My son is a HS junior sax player (also plays clarinet and some flute) who is considering a range of college music options - major, minor, or just performing in ensembles. Thanks.</p>
<p>I don’t know much about the music program, but I know we have a fairly well known department. I’ve had friends that have just performed, and another that is majoring in Music (I’m not sure what the full/“official” title of the major is). The major is very competitive (so I’ve heard from my friend), and you do have to audition to perform in any of the ensembles, but everyone that I know that has performed in anything has really enjoyed themselves.</p>
