I'm a first year student studying a Bachelor of Music at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, Australia. I play the Clarinet and possibly soon, the Sax as well.
I have no idea what I'm going to do in three years time when the course ends but oh well, this seems to be a great joyride. I have never seen so many talented people until this year commenced. It's bliss walking through the corridors early every morning.

Hey. I go to Valley Forge Christian College. I am a contemporary voice major who dables in classical voice. I am a 1st Tenor. I am performing in a few different groups. College Choir- 1st Tenor Opera Workshop- 1st Tenor (we are doing the Magic Flute and I am Monostatos) Wind Ensamble- Euphonium Department Recital- 1st Tenor I occasionally perform in handbell choir and accompany our traveling choir with my Euphonium. I have finished all the music theory classes, Music History, and Introduction to music technology.
I really like performing, but I have done it so frequently that sometimes I worry that I may becoming a better opera singer than contemporary singer. I love playing Euphonium and I also play flute also.

Hi there! This is pretty cool, all kinds of people from different colleges. I go to Palomar College, is a community college in San Marcos, CA. They have a very nice music program that prepares you for transferring. I hope to transfer to San Diego State University in a year or so. I'm not exactly sure what year i am XD something between a sophomore or junior. I'm majoring in piano and musical education, but i might do a performance major instead. I haven't made up my mind yet. I also sing.

I am a vocal major at Louisiana State University. My focus is in education, but I plan to pursue some performance outside of that, as well. I'm doing my senior recital in the fall! I'm nervous... T-T (for those interested, my program [tentatively] includes: Schubert, Andrea Falconieri, Rachmaninoff, Reynaldo Hahn, Bernstein, and some Irish folk songs).
I've been in LSU's Schola Cantorum, Chamber Singers, and Women's Chorus. I'm going to be in just Women's Chorus next semester, because of some opportunities that will help me out a lot in fall 2010. I plan to pursue a Master's in choral conducting, staying at LSU so I may study with Dr. Fulton (who is, without a doubt, the most talented choir director I have met in my lifetime).
After that, I'm debating a PhD in Vocal Pedagogy, but that's really too far down the road to decide.

liebestraume Wings I graduated from UBC in Canada last May. The technical name of my major is General Studies (Secondary Education) with a concentration in piano. My non-music friends usually have no idea what that means, and so I just tell them I'm a music major and I play piano. XD The music department here is tiny as well, but I liked the close-knit atmosphere. I'd never get to know anyone otherwise since I'm so slow in warming up to people. ^^; Lucky Ducky! Doesn't John Estacio teach composition there? No, he does not, at least not in the years I attended.

Teehee, our school beat yours in rugby wink I go to UCB. [Though we lost the championship, so what good is that ;_;]. I'm a music major. But the music department at Cal is pretty...uhh...well I just feel like it's really loose. Not a conservatory education at all. You're free to specialize however you want. You just need to take so many upper division classes, three semesters of performance, and a couple of these lower div classes. I'll probably end up specializing in theory though, just because there's no way I could ever be a performer >.< The music department isn't that huge at my school, either. at least it doesn't feel very big.

Next year I'll be going to Kent State University in Ohio for cello.
What I liked about the School of Music is that the strings professors make up the Miami String Quartet. The cello professor seems really cool, but I'm a little nervous because of the amount of music he's assigned me over the summer, which I've barely begun to work on!!!! D:

`Kel` Lets see im about to begin my 2nd and last year at Gulf Coast Community College in Florida, in August. I plan on transfering hopefully to FSU after next year. *crosses fingers* Im majoring in oboe, and right now im the only oboist at the school, and well one of very few instrumentalists. Im in the choir unwillingly, thats the only "instrumental ensamble" available here and you have to take it. I try to get out of singing in anyway possible. I can't wait to transfer to somewhere where they actually have other oboists, or really instrumentalists for that matter. Im the 3rd oboe in the Panama City POPS Orchestra. The first oboist is my private teacher and also my 2nd Mom, she has about 50 years on me. Im also going to be starting piano lessons with an amazing pianist next year, she has her doctrine in piano and just finished performing Tchaikovsky's piano concerto 1 with the POPS. (I'm new to this Guild so here's a short intro.) I'm quoting your post because I just started at USF in August this year and it's cool to see another Florida student here. So have you transferred to FSU? I'm not a music major. I'm actually biomed in hopes of doing pharmacy later on. But I've been playing the violin for almost 8 years now and I love love love love love classical music. biggrin

I'm a sophmore this year at NYU (violin studies). The music is intense but the students are pretty chill (although ridiculously well versed in theory...yeah mine isn't so hot sweatdrop ). it's a good music program; i'm trying to get into the pit orchestra here (dreams of broadway whee ), but like broadway there's no audition; it's about knowing the right people, which hopefully I've found them sweatdrop . so yea.
