There are many fine teachers and schools in the USA, too many to list. I suggest you google music schools in the USA and contact as many of them as possible with your questions. Most Masters degrees take two years and the cost depends on the school and if you can get any scholarship or not but don't forget you have to pay living expenses. Every school has different rules about graduate students living on campus or having to find an apartment. It could cost you 30 - 40 thousand dollars a year or it could cost you half of that or less, depends of many factors. Good luck. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com

With all due respect to SC university and Joe Eller, if you want to be a professional player there are many better schools to attend in the USA for a masters in performance. I'm sure it's a fine school but it doesn't come to mind when American students think of a top music professional school. I've never heard of it being mentioned when students list the schools they want to audition for as a muci major. You want to find a school that has very advanced students in all their instruments, winds as well as strings so their orchestra and chamber music program is at a near professional level. Take my suggestion I made above. Then after you make a list of colleges you can post them here for opinions on them. There are many professional level schools here. If you're looking to be a symphony player I would advise a school that has someone on the clarinet faculty that either is playing or has played for many years in a professional orchestra. If you're looking for a solo or chamber career that doesn't have to be a priority. Then someone that has a solo career. ESP

Two names spring to mind who always have a plethora of great students: Howard Klug (Indiana University), and Elsa Ludwig-Verder (Michigan State University).
