Music Artist Career Choice

Your manager also helps you develop who you are as an artist; your personal image is being developed here. Do you begin to appear in public with other artists of the same level of success? Do you volunteer time and services for charitable purposes and do you begin to identify those charities whose interests you feel you can advance by your involvement? (Thall, 2006) This image will develop and change overtime due to the music industry environment and the people you become associated with along the way.

My favorite quote was said by George N. Parks, "Dedicate yourself to being someone who cares for others." This quote speaks to me, because I enjoy going out of my way to help others around me. I dream of having a career that combines my passion for music, with my passion to help others. My college goal is to attend Ohio University, and obtain a bachelor's degree in music therapy.

Throughout my life, I have been taken by music. However, it was not until my 8th grade year in middle school that I realized that I could be a musician for the rest of my life. Before that, music just seemed like something to keep me out of trouble. I wasn’t the best player at that time, and I still knew very little about it all. How could something like that ever support someone? Still, it was the only talent that I could find any success in, and it was still very enjoyable, so I wanted to still give it a shot.

I came to realize that playing music can bring someone great fortune. I had no plans for the future, no goals, nor dreams before I starting my path in music. I never wondered without direction. But one day, good fortune came to me. A fortune I would have never of thought of. It was The Gracias choir and music. I was thinking to myself “I have never been so happy nor have I had so much enjoyment to live. To have an open mind to people around the world by delivering my heart threw my music. It looks like a dream!"

When I asked myself what I was I going to be when I got older, I had no answer. This made me realize that I had to make a decision and I had to make one fast. An area of study I have always been interested in is business. My dreams as a child have always been to become the President of The United States or an owner of a business. Working for a business would be intresting, but owning one would be more fulfilling. I would be able to expand my imagination by coming up with new ideas and control the company as a whole. I love designing and creating different things that make people happy, and if one day I became an owner of a company that produced products that satisfied people, that would make me happy. I soon came to the conclusion that in

My career goal is to get a Master’s degree in Music Therapy, an Associates in Music, and a Major in Psychology. The reason I chose this path is because originally I wanted to be a Vet. Since I was a little girl, then my eleventh grade year my grandparents in Louisiana I was living with convinced me that I wasn’t smart enough to pursue that path. So I went to a college with my school choir and I learned about music therapy and how it can heal and calm people. After I heard about it I knew that, that’s what I wanted to do, I wanted to make music and help people. So I looked more into that path and found out that it is a growing career and is becoming more and more popular. So now I am planning on going to a two year university to get my Associates degree in Music and my general studies all done, then go

My number one goal in all aspects of my life is to cultivate, preserve, and further the field of music through music education. It is a strong belief of mine that education is about innovation, not re-invention. In the future I hope to find ways to make music relevant to all students; to find ways to connect the classroom a student's everyday academic and personal life. Another aspiration of mine is to teach music abroad. This is something that I suspect

The outcome of this is that I want to be something that has to do with music in the

Imagine a naive fifteen year old walking into his first voice lesson ever, eager to prove to his teacher that he knows how to sing.

The entertainment business is always starting and stopping. You have to find a good balance between investing into your work and personal life. You never know when your last gig, job, concert will come. The consistency in your life will come from family and friends. A music career can break you emotionally. SO be confident in who you are and what you bring. Don’t make moral sacrifices to succeed in the game. That way when it’s all said and done you know you did your best and you didn’t

I started my music career singing in a children choir with maybe 3 or 4 years. This choir was composed of the sons and daughter of the senior singers. I went in all sections, except sopranos. After, I started to help the conductor preparing scores, conducting rehearsals, producing kits of rehearsal, accompaniment tracks, even conducting in live performances. Now, my dream is study music here in the US, become a "Maestro" and music producer. Thank you for reading a bit about my

Everyone has his or her career goal to achieve in life. If I have a choice between all careers, mine will be to become a business entrepreneur. Be an entrepreneur is not so easy. I will have to create my company in stages. The very first thing will be to make a personal assessment. What are my real motivations? What are my strengths and weakness? Do I have the necessary diplomas? Am I good salesman? Will I know how to convince? Am I a good manager? I will plan my activities with a motivated mind. I know that it is a lot of work, but the benefits to be an entrepreneur are so many.
