Since my sister wants to become a famous cellist, she is wondering how to find the best music school to start attending. So thanks for suggesting that we consider their geographic location since your activities will change when it comes to a small town or a large city. Since my sister loves the night life, I’ll be sure to tell her to go to a music school in a large city.

In reply to Victor.

Thanks so much for your comment, Victor. We’re glad you found �ƹ�app!

You speak directly to the reason �ƹ�app was launched about 18 months ago. We and our music major son spent an enormous amount of time, over the course of his high school years, searching for the kind of guidance this website now provides. He didn’t want anyone to tell him where to go to school based on a few superficial criteria. He wanted guidance re: the PROCESS from the INSIDE, as well as tips, from a career standpoint, to put it all in context.

So many students end up at schools that aren’t a good fit for them, because the right questions and considerations were not addressed from the start. �ƹ�app is designed to prevent that.

Our mission is to get the word out about �ƹ�app for students, parents, music teachers, high school music directors, and anyone else in a position to facilitate wise thinking and decision-making without enormous stress and expense. Please help us spread the word!

We hope you’ll come back and visit often – new content is always being added. Best wishes to your daughter and to you!

It’s 6:30 am, I am at the computer blogging as to which school my daughter accepts. After playing piano for 14 years (she’s 18) I am wondering how and why I am just now asking these questions. Pre screen for Harvard/Tufts/NEC Jazz Scholarship, auditions at 5 schools here in Michigan….How is it that just now I am trying to find help on the web to ask the right questions for choosing the right college? What did we miss? She has been accepted at all of her choices, Hope, Western Michigan, Michigan State, Wayne State, except denied at the Harvard Dual Degree, and deferred at Michigan. Summer Camp at Eastman, Michigan, Blue Lake. We are going to carefully read your site and others to get more information on how to make the right choice!
