Master's Advice

Author: ClarinettyBetty

Hello all,

I am getting my Master's in music performance beginning this fall. I have personal goals that I want to accomplish, and of course I plan to practice as much as possible, but besides that--

1) If you could go back in time and have a do-over for your Master's or even Bachelor's degree, what would you have done differently? What would you have taken advantage of that you didn't realize you should have?

2) What do you suggest I do if I plan on getting my doctorate so I can one day teach at the collegiate level? Cultivate relationships, hole up in a practice room, meet certain people, etc? Set up a performing group? Make a website? Worry about competitions? Not worry about competitions?

I want to go into my Master's degree strong and not let opportunities slip through my fingers.

For background info, money is not a problem, nor is time. I am an extremely fortunate individual right now!

Thank you all,

CB
