Julliard is one of the more famous schools and better schools to go to.

In no order…
Juilliard,
Eastman,
Indiana University,
Oklahoma University,
Temple University,
New England Conservatory,
Ithaca College,
University of North Texas,
Berklee,
Cleveland Institute of Music,
and Manhattan School of Music
…would have to top my personal list.

It couldn’t be treated like an "Ivy League," per se though it would be funny to picture Juilliard fielding a football team to go up against Indiana Univeristy.

Julliard for classical.

Mannes for classical.

Berklee for everything else (guitar, performance, business, etc).

Berklee’s your best bet!

I would say Julliard, or Berkeley are the best two in the country for music in general. I think it's possible to learn about the business of it as well in any music oriented institution. After all, I doubt they'd want you to just perform and not learn the business.

GREAT question!! Check out Julliard. It is probably the best music school in the nation. If you are interested in performing arts (theater arts) and don't mind intense competition, check out University of Michigan and New York University. These schools should have great business programs as well. Best of luck.
