If he’s good at Bassoon, be SURE that he makes a CD sample to send with his admissions packet. I chose Williams over AmHerst because they had a substantially better classical music program. For example, I was shown around campus at AmHerst by the head of the music department, whereas at Williams I was just another talented musician who was still nurtured.
If he’s good enough, definitely look into the Berkshire Symphony.
