I'll be at University of Michigan with Diana Gannet. Plus I'm getting $30,000 a year to go there. Pretty sweet.

Say, are you going as an undergrad? I can't find anyone who is going as an undergrad into Bransby's studio...

I have a friend who got his masters at Boston Concervatory with Ben Levy. I've heard only great things about Ben. Aside from being a supernaturally gifted bassist, he's reputed to be an excellent young teacher.

NEC with Don Palma.

Congrats to everyone else, these are some great schools.

Alex, I've had a few lessons with Ben when I was in Boston, and he blew me away. That's going to be really fun.

For sure. Larry has recommended him highly to me. Although I just got an email from Juilliard saying I got in? We'll see what happens...
