<p>Does anyone know of any bass players who made it past the pre-screen at Shepherd? I heard second-hand that Shepherd has decided not to admit any new undergraduate double bass players for 2014-15. Does anyone know if that is true? </p>
<p>I hadn’t heard that, but I know a bassist who didn’t get past the pre-screen at Shepherd but did at Curtis. She is an outstanding bassist and I was surprised, so if what you say is so, then that makes sense.</p>
