John Hopkins University, which the Peabody Conservatory is part of, just anounced they would be doing online classes only, I used to teach at Peabody. This is happening all over the country of course not just Peabody. When I was a muic student private lessons, close and personal, chamber music coaching and large ensemble playing was a major part of my education as a clarinet student. Attending profesional concerts were also a major part of my education. I felt the same way as a faculty member. The BSO, and all the professional classial music organizations are on hold as well. Most orchestras have cancelled their fall season, a few cancelled their entire season. Hopkins is lowering their tuition by a whopping ten percent from over $28,500 a semester. My advise to any student enrolled in any music school this coming year, at least semester, that is not on a full scholarship, is to postpone their music education for a year. Any thoughts on the subject?
