[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depending on the school and the instrument, submitting a music supplement can definitely help. If it’s an uncommon instrument (eg bassoon, French horn, piccolo) even better. My kid submitted a supplement to schools that would take it. M[b]y advice would be to try to record the supplement the summer before senior year and work with your son’s private instructor (if he has one) to do so. [/b] It took more time than we thought and was the last piece of her applications she finished. Also, when you are looking at schools, make sure non-majors can play in the ensembles your son would want to be in. At our state flagship it is very difficult to play in the orchestra if you’re not a music major, so that was a negative for my kid. She ended up at a SLAC where most of the kids in the orchestra are not music majors. [/quote] This is such great advice. Thank you. OP[/quote]
