Extracurriculars for Future Music Students

By Elizabeth Wells

Extracurriculars make a big difference. Playing in an ensemble, managing an ensemble, or composing or arranging for your high school music ensemble or church music group is great experience.  Teaching privately to young children is also highly valued, and volunteering with children or at-risk groups with music therapy-type activities is great experience.
