Boston Conservatory

Though it's heavily over-shadowed by Boston University and the New England Conservatory, The Boston Conservatory sparked some interest in me. How does the Boston Conservatory compare to other schools nation wide?

1-*plugh*
2-bad
3-it's okay
4-good
5-very good
6-excellent

I noticed that the faculty is entirely made up of BSO members. There is NOTHING wrong with that.

FEEDBACK!

Depends. Do you play Jazz or Classical?

From your profile I'm guessing you play classical.

NEC and BU are far better bass schools without a doubt. However, the biggest factor in choosing a school should be faculty. If you want to study with Larry Wolfe Todd Seeber or any of the other guys that teach there, I'm sure you would get a better deal than you would at NEC.

Todd Seeber also teaches at BU, by the way.

Also, he's really, really nasty.

ha.....not nasty like that. Nasty like, "Man, did you see that guy play the Schuller concerto, it was nasty".

Todd's a great guy, and a great teacher.
