While I haven't attended any of these schools yet and since there is no definitive top school, these are the American schools that I think would be the best, based on reputation of the school, teacher and location. So, in no particular order:
-Indiana U., Bloomington; Dan Perantoni
-U. Michigan, Ann Arbor; Fritz Kaenzig
-Southern Cal, LA; Tommy Johnson, Jim Self
-Arizona State, Tempe; Sam Pilafian
-Northwestern, Evanston, IL (Chicago); Rex Martin
-Cincinnati Conservatory; Tim Northcut
-Rice University, Houston, TX; Dave Kirk
-Eastman School of Music, Rochester, NY; Don Harry
-Juilliard, NYC; Warren Deck
-Peabody, Baltimore; David Fedderly
