What are some good music colleges?

I had a friend that went to Berklee College of Music in Boston and LOVED it. http://www.berklee.edu/

Instrument or voice?

Julliard’s the obvious. Also Indiana University, University of Cincinnati, Otterbein, University of Louisville

juilliard

You can add Manhattan school of Music to the list. Of course Juilliard.

Pepperdine in California. Great classical guitar department!

University of North Texas has some very influential percussion instructors.

Mannes College at The New School

Oberlin in Ohio.

Thanks to ALL you guys!!!

CalArts.edu (alumnus speaking)...awesome music program that specializes in Jazz, World, Electro-Acoustic, and modern/Avant-Garde.

Cool. Is this program for singing or instuments??

@rentluva5256 they have both vocal and instrumental programs. I believe they have some archives of performances on their website; they also perform at the Walt Disney concert hall in L.A., and have their own performance venue there in downtown L.A. at that complex.

Thanks @sndfreQ I’ll be sure to check that out!

@rentluva5256 you’re welcome…they do a spring concert series that’s amazing! They fly in world-renowned musicians who play with the student musicians; I really enjoyed hearing their West African drumming, their Gamelan (Balinese, Javanese), and their North and South Indian ensembles…among the best in the world!
