So many memories !
I attended the Musician Institute in 1994-1995.
The school hasnt changed that much, apart from the exterior, especially this big open air passage that didnt exist back in the days. I think it's where used to be a small restaurant called " Passage of Hollywood". There were special discounts for MI students and i used to eat there every day for lunch. 🤗
I would like to go back there to see how everything has changed. Even the neighborhood has changed quite a lot. Apparently, there is a huge mall next to the Chinese Theater. I used to live just behind it, at 1775 Orchid Avenue.
Hugs from Martial in Switzerland 🇨🇭😙

My experience with Musicians Institute was pretty much the exact opposite of most reviews from students/alumni. I struggled heavily when it came to my studies, and found that most teachers and students wanted nothing to do with you if you weren't already at a certain level on your instrument. The people there really know how to make someone feel stupid when someone is inexperienced or trying to learn something new. I felt very discouraged being there, and found it to be a very cliquish and cold environment. Impossible to make friends or any type of connections. I'm currently stuck in non-music related day job and have struggled to get gigs due to the lack of help and guidance I needed. It seems like administrators only want to hear positive stories about graduates who succeed after MI, and have no concern with those who are struggling. Forget about any type of career assistance or job placement; anyone who receives assistance is someone who can make the school look good and attract new students.

I don't think that beginner guitarests should not go to any music school, they need to take private one on one lessons before that kind of dedicated choice.

That basically every music school or college
