  • Are you attending for the B-tone section, or attending Virginia State to earn a degree? Section shouldn't matter you make it work/good when you get there, and take care of business.

  • Choosing a college should be about who you feel would offer you a quality education because in the end, an employer could care less about how good the baritone section was....But personally, I would recommend Norfolk State. But whatever music programs you're interested in, make sure you visit the campus, attend band camps and clinics, and get to know the directors and ask questions. Like I said, college isn't about a section but about earning a degree. Good luck!
  • I live not to far from V State about an hour away and I also have a cousin attending state he says that the school is okay but depending on what you are trying topget a degree is based what school you should go to. The school is "good" but the band is great. But I think choosing a school is more important than the section.
