Shepherd School of Music
on: May 06, 2003, 07:43:08 PM
Has anyone heard about Shepherd School of Music? It is the only conservatory around here. I am thinking about attending and was just wondering what everyone thought about it? Also, the requirements are to play a concerto or ensemble piece with the orchestra. How does one practice this without having an orchestra at their disposal?

Have you ever heard of the publishing company Music Minus One? They publish works for solo instrument and orchestra. The really cool thing is, the scores come with a CD that has the piece, and the orchestral parts. That way, you can learn the concerto, and then practice it with the orchestra soundtrack. Not quite the same as a live performance, but in a pinch, it will work!
