How do you get into Berklee College of Music?

12th January

Im a high schooler and i play guitar.
Also, is Berklee a good school?
Which one is better, massachusetts or california?

My brother got accepted into the Berklee College of Music in Boston, he was also a guitar player, and he went up to Boston and auditioned early decision. He worked with a guitar teacher, and picked to do either classical or jazz, and he put together a piece with him. He didn't end up going, just because it wasn't a right fit for him, but if you work with a teacher and decide either jazz or classical, you'd have a better chance.

And to the person above me, he spelled it right, but I don't think that there's two, Berklee in Boston, and Berkley in California.

berklee college of music?

10th January

Is Berklee a reputable school for their music management degree? Also, do you extenesive theory before admission to the school, or can you just be an experienced player who is good?
berkLEE, located in Boston, MA
not berkELEY, in CA

UC-Berkeley is a good school. Theory is usually part of the curriculum for musicians as it helps you in so! many ways.

I recommend looking it up on the internet.

Best wishes.

Contemporary Music Colleges?

8th January

Does anyone know of any contemporary music colleges? I.e Berklee School of Music In Boston?

Do you mean colleges that offer courses on the Contemporary Music style, or just current colleges that focus soley on music?
A lot of colleges have courses that teach about the Contemporary Music style. In fact, as most colleges have a 4 semester theory program, the 4th semester is usually based on 20th century/Contemporary composition styles.
As for music colleges, there are berklee, San francisco Conservatory, Juliard, and a few others, but you'll get just as good of an education elsewhere. I go to a state college and I have classmates who went to Berklee and feel the education is better at the state college.

Berklee Vocal Audition?

6th January

I'm attending a five-week performance workshop at Berklee School of Music this summer and I need to prepare a vocal audition. The piece needs to be short and I only have one shot at it. I'm a soprano (if that helps at all.) Any suggestions?

It's hard to tell you something without more information: how old you are, how long have you been singing, how are you at foreign languages, are you a high soprano ( lyric, spinto, dramatic, etc) what have you sung before that seems to suit your voice well, etc.
Picking a song is like, well, picking a card out of the deck. there are so many choices
Get back to me, and I'll be glad to add something positive..
