Hello! I am going to be applying for Berklee very soon. However, I have some questions. I play piano, all of percussion, and I sing. I only have interest in the film scoring program as my main musical skill is in composition - specifically melodically heavy works (neo-romantic) and I love and have connections to the film scoring world; naturally that would be my choice.

As for an audition for someone like me, what should I do? Should I write a piece and perform it on piano (I’m not the most amazing pianist but I have played for 9 years). I have no clue! Thank you!!

I occasionally get motion sickness on rocky seas and on planes and have a deep interest in getting into the yachting business — will my body get used to the motion, or do the yachts have sufficient gyrostabilization? Thank you!

Hello! I hope to one day receive a degree in music composition - I currently am still in high school and compose music for short films, concept works for my youth orchestra, and simply myself. However, I’ve never gotten any actual formal composition training. I’ve studied and played piano and percussion for 9 years and am of course very fluent in those performance-sectors. That, along with simply studying orchestral music I admire, has certainly assisted me; but that’s all I go off of.

I am on the search for an online course that is suited for experienced musicians who need to get a more clear idea on composition and orchestration. I am also of course very interested and inspired by film composition so I’d like recommendations in that way as well. John Williams, for example, is a great inspiration to me. Thank you so much for your help!
