Vocalizers:
The Music Department of the University that I'm entering this fall does not provide accompanists for voice lessons, recitals or juries. Voice students must provide, and pay for, a pianist for all these occasions. This seems very strange (actually the term "cheap" comes to mind). I know that the community colleges in the area all provide pianists for voice students.
Before I judge my new school too harshly, I'd like to find out if this policy is typical of University music departments. Do other Music departments usually provide accompanists for voice students? Or is my school unusual in this regard.
Thanks for your response,
Bob Harris San Diego
