Study in the UK

[Matt.Bass]

Hey Janek (and anyone else),

I'm looking at studying Bass/Contemporary Music here in the UK starting '09 and was wondering if you had any advice on the schools I'm looking at. I know/think you've done some guest teaching at the Bass Institute, any good?
Was also looking at ACM and BIMM. If you have an opinion of any of these places it'd be great to hear it!

Thanks,

Matt

Matt,

I'm on the visiting faculty at the ICMP which is a fantastic school, and I've done some masterclasses at ACM in guildford which is also a very good school.

I would recommend you going to ICMP because of a couple of things. I think the network they provide of other like minded musicians, and the location being in a major metropolitan area are two fantastic reasons to go there.

They're super cool, and I'm sure you would have lots of fun over there.

Easy,

Janek

Awesome thanks Janek, I appreciate it a lot. I'm going for a tour at ACM and I'm gonna check out ICMP asap.

Thanks again man, love your stuff... and do another podcast soon! haha

Matt.
