<p>UT Austin has recently had a very large donation to their music program. Does anyone out there know anything about this program? It does not seem to get much mention on this forum.</p>
<p>thanks for any info.</p>
<p>I know a little bit about it, I auditioned and got accepted there. I wasn’t too particularly impressed with the students who were currently at that school, but the faculty (for my particular studio) was pretty good. It’s certainly a legitimate place to look though. It’s not a top tier, but it’s a respectable school.</p>
<p>I originally posted the donation article two years back in the thread here <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/475958-wonderful-news-ut-austin.html?highlight=UT+Austin[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/475958-wonderful-news-ut-austin.html?highlight=UT+Austin</a></p>
<p>The link no longer works, but as far as I can remember this appears to be that article [Butler</a> School of Music | Welcome to the Sarah and Ernest Butler School of Music](<a href=“http://www.music.utexas.edu/news/details.aspx?id=87]Butler”>http://www.music.utexas.edu/news/details.aspx?id=87)</p>
<p>Solid strings, with Brian Lewis who is much in demand, and the recent addition of Ann Akiko Meyers. The Miro Quartet has been the QIR there for a while.</p>
<p>Seems the flute program is worth looking into as well [Butler</a> School of Music | Welcome to the Sarah and Ernest Butler School of Music](<a href=“http://www.music.utexas.edu/news/details.aspx?id=102]Butler”>http://www.music.utexas.edu/news/details.aspx?id=102)</p>
<p>Marianne Gedigian is one of the most sought after flute professors! Yes, definately one to look into and definately a top tier!</p>
