�鶹ӰԺ

Nate Scott ’23 knew from the outset that he wanted to study music performance. Eventually, he found that �鶹ӰԺ was like the ideal place to do it.

He discovered �鶹ӰԺ through a fair for performing arts schools, and since then has been able to expand his musical experiences more than he ever thought possible. Since coming to �鶹ӰԺ, Nate has been able to explore music outside of the usual classical repertoire that he otherwise may never have experienced.

He says, “The studio really opened me up to a lot of possibilities with the bassoon and showed me the player I could be.”

In addition to exploring new music, Nate also enjoys taking part in several ensembles here on campus such as the �鶹ӰԺ Symphony Orchestra, �鶹ӰԺ University Wind Ensemble, and his own chamber groups.

Like so many of his peers, Nate says he is grateful for the numerous opportunities that the “�鶹ӰԺ Difference” has brought him.

“Meeting so many different people here has really help me expand myself both academically and personally. I am a really different person than I was coming into �鶹ӰԺ, and I really like who I am now.”

In his time after �鶹ӰԺ, Nate hopes to spend some time traveling, further expanding his possibilities with the bassoon, eventually hoping to land in grad school on the east coast.
