Eric, this is a fascinating list. I'm actually surprised to see so wide a variety of schools producing symphony level players.

Sometimes, though, depending on the school, the performance majors simply get a stronger, deeper music experience than the music ed majors enrolled at the same college. They get more varied hands-on performance experience and spend less time with pedagogy. That difference in music experience *can* produce better teachers. It can also produce more skilled local free-lancers. A good, well trained player who is an inspiring and musically well-informed teacher, who can supplement teaching income with whatever the local gig economy can provide, can easily reach "the 'middle income' tier of earners in the U.S.."

There's more to living as a musician than playing in a major symphony and more benefits than audition skills to be gained as a performance major.
