Hello everyone. I've been looking into these 2 schools mentioned above. I studied with Ken Grant (the clarinet professor) at Eastman this past summer during Marrowstone Music Festival and the summer before at the same place. I would love to go to either school but I feel like my likelihood on getting into Juilliard would be so slim. Any advice or hints that would help?

Very quick knee-jerk reaction: if you'd like to go to Juilliard, then audition. Right now, you don't have the choice to make - you don't say you've been accepted at either school. Audition at whatever schools you think you'd like to attend and then see what your choices are when the results come in.

Judging from the results of recent US premiere service band auditions, Eastman seems to be the top dog right now. (And I'm a Juilliard alumnus!)

Suggestion, include The Manhattan School (College) of Music as well. Many of the same teachers and very high standard. Audition for all three, if you're lucky enough to get into one or more you can choose by which teacher you feel most comfy with. Audition winners have very little to do with the college they attended other then more of the best students have come out of some schools more than others. Curtis being one of the best for their students winning auditions, because they are among the best going in so they're among the best coming out. With that said, there are winners from many different schools. I've had, still do in some cases, have former students in many service bands from when I taught at Peabody and several that graduated from Towson University as well. It's you, not the school you graduated from.
