Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts, Edith Cowan University

The Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) loves getting young musicians, before university, to gain experience with WAAPA teachers and ensembles, so I was invited to play with its orchestra when I was in high school. When it came to deciding where to go, my gut feeling was definitely for WAAPA because of the environment and multiple artistic disciplines it offers.

As well as one-to-one lessons, we had string classes and performance classes, aural training, music theory, music history and composition, as well as classes on both classical and indigenous Australian music. We were involved in operas and musical theatre, which were some of my favourite parts of the course, as well as the symphonic programmes, chamber music, and playing Baroque music with my teacher, Paul Wright, who is a specialist.

Most of us would get there bright and early for our aural classes, then commune at the café. WAAPA operates 24 hours, so people were in and out of practice rooms from six in the morning until late at night. Perth is very suburban, so most people lived with their families or in houses with other students. And there's a park nearby where we'd all sit together and have picnics.

WAAPA helped me become a multifaceted musician, able to play so many different musical genres. The performance experience ensured that I didn’t get too comfortable, and pushed me to be better. A highlight for me was the concerto competition in my final year. Being at the front of the stage rather than in the orchestral section really got me out of my comfort zone.

The other students become your fierce friends for life. I would really recommend WAAPA to musicians who want to branch out beyond classical performance and to pursue other interests. This is because WAAPA offers so many collaborations with dance, opera, acting, new music, musical theatre, improvisation and jazz. That environment was what sold me on WAAPA.

Eastman School of Music, Rochester, NY

USA

Dylan Jowell, cello

I chose Eastman primarily for the cello faculty. I really enjoyed developing such a close relationship with my professor, David Ying. So much of what I learnt from the school, both on and off the instrument, I owe to him. Also, having a student body where everyone is as dedicated and passionate about music as you is really humbling and helps you grow.

Eastman is pretty rigorous academically. I had a lot of courses in music theory, music history and aural skills. We had to take two years of piano, and of course the usual lessons, chamber music, orchestra and string pedagogy classes. I also did a certificate in world music, so my studies included world music ensembles and ethnomusicology courses. There was also a number of courses that were just humanities, but I would say 90 per cent of my classes were music-related.

Academic classes were usually in the morning, most of the afternoon was taken up with rehearsals or coaching for ensembles, and then I’d practise in the evenings. Eastman had a system where they cut off the practice rooms at 11pm, to make sure students weren't practising at three in the morning.

The building itself is really cool because it's a transformed silent movie theatre, so it feels like going to school in an art museum. It can feel surreal because most of your classes take place in two buildings that feel like one, and you had to be in the dorms for three of the four years, so that takes dedication. You can feel a bit trapped when you’ve been there for years. But if you're there to study music and you really just want to focus on it, I’d say there's no better institution for it, because you learn everything very deeply.

Being able to adjust to whatever job comes your way is especially important in the modern climate, and I feel Eastman taught me to be a well-rounded and flexible musician.
