<p>Hello,</p>
<p>This is my first post...In planning ahead for college I would like to find a school that will give me the opportunity to perform with a concert band even though I will probably not be a music major. I play the oboe and flute.</p>
<p>Do anyone have any recommendations? Also, I will probably not be qualified for the most competitive top tier of colleges.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>hoping someone has some information on this...</p>
<p>You might try posting this on the parents and music major forums. Even though you won't be majoring in music, there might be several people who are familiar with concert bands at colleges on the east coast. Also, what size school are you looking for? Big city or small town? Residential or commuter? Private or public? Many colleges with a school of music will have several concert bands of differing skill levels, and most colleges with large marching bands will have multiple concert bands as well.<br>
Good luck!</p>
