Testimonial

Austin Davis
Bachelor of Music with an Education Minor (2024).
Majored on Tuba and played with the symphonic band.

"I could not have asked to be a part of a more robust and incisive program than what was offered here at TAMUCT. The directors and professors here offer incredible insights and display nothing but thoughtfulness towards the students while simultaneously expecting greatness from each and every one of us. Though the work can be challenging at times, the reward of it all is worth tenfold the effort that you put in. This program will provoke you into choosing the work that will transform you into a musician of the highest caliber, whether that be as an educator or as a performer. I would not be the person I am today without the influence and the aid of each of these educators."
