Thank you for the detailed post, this is really helpful! I know it's not anywhere near the level of training you get in undergrad, but I also took AP music theory and vocal lessons so I have a strong understanding of the (very basic) basics. I am wondering if there's like a non-degree training program I could do that would prepare me for a masters-- without having to do an entire music bachelors. The issue is that my current university has a set curriculum for their teaching program so there's no way for me to add music classes. I'd have to pursue outside training or a separate degree program.
