Oh, I start next fall - I'm going to be TA'ing under Rachel Rudich, which is totally awesome. She's doing exactly what I want to be doing with my life, and she's a total sweetheart.
As for the RAM thing, in that case I would just go with Susan Milan and show up for the WiBB masterclasses. I've been doing that with Keith Underwood for two years and it's worked out really well. It sucks that he doesn't teach anyone - I hate it when they do that. It's so lame sad.
I studied with Langevin privately for 6 months during undergrad (I was at UMiami, which is a much better school than people give credit for. I flew back and forth to New York twice a month for lessons). I studied with the three big Roberts - Robert Langevin, Robert d**k, and Roberto Fabricciani (in Italy). I do have the MM in Performance - next year I'm going for an MFA at CalArts in performance as well (I do a lot of Scriabin-esque interdisciplinary stuff, so I need the time to just do productions and go crazy.) I might be applying to RAM in a few years to study with WiBB - Susan Milan is great though, and you absolutely deserve your acceptance into both of those programs. Have you taken lessons with either of them before? If not, I highly recommend trying to get a lesson with each of them before you decide - I chose not to apply to Mannes because I had such a bad experience taking lessons with one of the teachers >_>
Yeah, but you've got SOUL, and that can't be faked biggrin.
Yeah, I've just finished my MM at NYU. I'm taking a few months to just chill in the city and study with Robert. He's pretty much the best teacher I've ever studied with. Langevin is excellent too, but Robert d**k is totally on my wavelength.
Argh they do hurt alot, and I cant concentrate on anything! I completely failed playing bass Cuz I it was hard to keep the beat with a pain in my mouth -_-
My eye sight is a bit of a problem as well haha
