What colleges should I consider??
I want to be a music therapist and concert pianist; where should I go to college?
Should I major in music therapy with a piano performance minor, or major in music therapy and then get a masters in piano performance from a more prestigious school?
My future career goal is to primarily be a music therapist and private music instructor, but I would also like to be a professional concert pianist, perhaps touring every summer or every other summer with a few gigs throughout the year. Technically, the only degree I need is a music therapy degree, but would a minor be necessary? Or possibly I could just major in music therapy and then maybe get a piano performance masters if I decide afterwards that I need one? Also then what college should I go to? I have met with a professional opera singer from the Met, and he emphasized connections in college and how important it is to have a recognized teacher, but I am having trouble deciding.

What are some tips for finding an internship in college?
Hello! I'm a rising junior, and I'm trying to look for internships for summer 2025. I'm not sure on my major, but was thinking maybe music or art. I was wondering how you get an internship for something in this field -- or if it's better to just focus on a portfolio. Does it matter what the internship is in, or does it just look good to have anything? Ideally I'd like something music related (really anything) AND to make a good portfolio. But I'm not sure where to start with finding internships in that field. Thanks!
