Like the prescreening we are getting conflicting info from various coaches and DD's university teacher as t what school to attend. DDs teacher says teacher is most important and has given us a list of people he thinks would be a "good" fit, and DD has been coached by a couple of them who are telling her they want her but they, and most of the others on the list teach in HUUUUGEE programs and DD is not wild about that. Not sure why, but she doesn't like cattle calls. Others, including an internationally known opera conductor have told her to cast a wide net initially and not worry if a school seems "unattainable" and that if invited for auditions, often times, post audition whatever teacher is potentially interested in having her in their studio will do a call back lesson and that is the way to winnow things down. There is not a particular teacher she really wants to work with other than Faulkner.
