Practice time at conservatories vs. music major universities

<p>hahahahah…gazellemom my son just came home from his first semester at a leading conservatory where he is studying Jazz Bass. I told him I had run into his AP physics teacher from last year. His response…Why did I take AP Physics? I wish I had spent all that time practicing instead. Go Figure. We never pressured him to take AP physics. It was his choice. So no parental guilt here. Still I thought you would be interested. Obviously our son is not interested in double majoring or having a back up plan. He has had a successful first semester, done quite a lot of paid gigs in the area and has made connections with other musicians who he hopes to continue to work with as he grows as an artist.</p>
