What are some options in the career of music?



I would really like to be involved with music when I get out of high school. I am actually realling interesting in finding a stable, if possible part-time, career in music. Although I do play guitar, I do not want to be in a band of any sort. I really don't want to travel either, unless it is just occasional. What would be a good job that I could consider? (Please dont' put songwriter or producer I have already looked into these) Alos. Where could I get some schooling for this job?

You might want to look into Music Business or Arts Administration as a college major.

There are all manner of jobs dealing with the music industry that aren't filled by performers. Some that come to mind:

Artists Agent
Recording Engineer
Retail Sales (recorded or equipment)
Acoustician
Sound Board Operator/Mixer
Venue Manager (and assistants)
Tour Manager
Booking Agent
Arts Organization Administration (orchestra business manager, fund raising, etc...)
Arranger/Copyist
Instrument Maker
Instrument Repairman
Teacher
Publisher
PR Rep.
Radio Station Advertising Sales
Radio Station On-Air Personality
.... that should be a few to get you started thinking about options...

note: music industry people travel a lot. Source(s): Me: BA, BSc, MA
