Masters. Do you think the prestige of the institution matters at all, like for networking? Or am I better off studying at podunk state with someone I vibe with?

you want to look at a teacher's track record in placing students into top DMA programs/getting competition wins. lots of teachers are fun people with good ideas but can't deliver any chance of a good career. i guess it depends on your goals

Good point about DMA placement. It's kinda hard to find that info tho. Their websites just list their myriad accomplishments. Don't talk about what their students have gone on to do.

there are lots of great piano schools that aren't juilliard, and lots of shitty pianists at juilliard. don't MFE in music career threads unless you know what you're talking about

there really are great teachers with great studios all over the place. just in random places. and other places you'd expect to be strong really aren't

UPDATE:

In January I’m starting in the studio of a renown pedagogue whose students have an uncanny tendency to place in international competitions and get accepted into elite dmas. Will work with her for several years before applying to masters.
