The DePaul Tuba studio offers hands-on training for aspiring professional performers. With limited spots available, the program mirrors the competitive nature of orchestral tuba positions. While admission standards are rigorous and performance expectations high, the studio fosters a collaborative environment. This aligns with DePaul School of Music's holistic approach, valuing individual growth and diverse musical perspectives to create a supportive community. Weekly private lessons are complemented by orchestral and solo masterclasses. Each spring, students showcase their skills through solo recitals and tuba quartet performances. Unlike larger programs, DePaul's tuba students benefit from personalized instruction and abundant performance opportunities. The studio's core principle revolves around an endless teacher-student-performer cycle, where participants engage at various stages of their musical journey.
