If you’re considering going on to major or minor in music, WT would be a great school for you to explore.  I like to think we’re the perfect size for most students: large enough to have all of the resources you need, and small enough that you get individual attention from all of your professors.  We have full-time faculty for every instrument and academic area, we have great school-owned bassoons and a contrabassoon, a fully-stocked reed-making room, and our top ensembles regularly go on tour to places like Carnegie Hall and Costa Rica, as well as around Texas.

 

My students get weekly lessons with me, as well as studio class, and weekly reed-making lessons.  I’m also involved in teaching music theory, as an example my theory classes typically have about fifteen students in them, so they all get individualized attention.

I’d be happy to meet with you for a free sample lesson to help you prepare for your audition for all-state, or for university, just let me know when you might be available!

 

Finally, every summer we have a WT Band and Orchestra camp that regularly draws over 1000 students from all over Texas, the United States, and the world!  It’s a great opportunity to explore college life and immerse yourself in a supportive, high-level musical environment: https://www.wtamu.edu/academics/college-fine-arts-humanities/school-music/camps-and-pre-college-programs/band-camp/index.html
