Dear Sarah, I am sad to think that you would want to go to julliard or curtis. Montanaro is currently principal, but he is so old that he sounds bad, and his students hate him and his teaching.

Bob,
I know a couple of students of his, and they enjoy his teaching. I'm sure some hate him, too - my son found him a "cold fish" during an audition, but others didn't.

As for julliard, dont bother, its a joke. Neidich cant teach classical clarinet to save his life, let alone yours.

Don't know any Neidich students.

Bob was still writing:
As or morales, he too young to teach, and the school is at a poor level.

That's poo-poo :^) Morales is _already_ earning a pretty good reputation as a teacher, age notwithstanding. Manhattan is on an upswing from previous years, and if you want to study jazz it's one of the place to really consider.

Bob concluded:
try to make other choices

Well, I think there's plenty of other schools to consider, especially as an undergrad, so I'll agree pretty much here.
