Training beyond the bachelor's degree...what are my options?

<p>Oh…I see…yeah, wasn’t thinking of that “Non-audition colleges” post when I made this thread. </p>

<p>The issue I have with plans is that I want to pursue BOTH MT and wind conducting, and don’t know how to do so. In addition, I’m sure that if I did get into MT performance as a career, there would be a point at which I would be “too old” and continually beat out by younger auditioners, at which point (the way I see it) I could then teach music. </p>

<p>The reason I was asking about the master’s degree was namely because I was wondering if I needed to get the master’s degree in wind conducting in order to get the subsequent doctoral degree. My idea was getting my master’s in MT, or double majoring for my master’s, which would in theory allow me to do both, but I wasn’t sure how feasible that would be.</p>
