Invisible Career-Path Available Only to Musicians
For a skilled musician, there is an additional career path that is invisible to the non-musician. This is an additional benefit beyond the pleasure of playing music, the attention it brings, and the better academic performance than students who do not learn to play a musical instrument. It is a broad range of extra career opportunities that non-musicians never even consider.
But if you're a musician, you can apply. Let's take a look at these careers that are available only to musicians
Education: Are you a musician who has also studied education? If so, there are numerous music education opportunities that may interest you:
Music educator at a college, conservatory, university
Music teacher at secondary or elementary school
Private music instructor
Music supervisor
Choir director
Therapy: Are you a musician who has also studied psychiatry? You can practice the trade of music therapy in a wide array of settings. Some of the sources of employment for music therapists are the following:
Schools
Universities
Nursing Homes
Mental health clinics
Correctional Facilities
Private practice
Business: Ever wonder what it takes to work in business management? Besides business smarts, an ability to talk the language of music will take you places the non-musican cannot go:
Artist Manager or Agent
Talent Agent
Concert Promoter
Independent Radio Promoter
Music Business Entrepreneur
Music Business Consultant
Record Company Executive
Music Publisher
Tour Coordinator
Performance: Actors are more highly valued if they have a musical education. Today, with so few actors multi-skilled as they were in the era of the large studios, this can be a real advantage. Below are some of the jobs for which an actor who is also a musician may "incidentally" be qualified.
Performing artist
Soloist, instrumental or vocal
Studio musician
Background vocalist
Theatre musician
Accompanist
Church musician
Product demonstrator for instrument manufacturer
Movies / Video Games: If you study movies or video game production, a background as a musician will help you prepare for music-related jobs such as the following:
Conductor
Music Composer
Music Editor
Music Supervisor (to scout for music)
Arranger (to determine the mix of song elements per the conductor or producer's specifications)
Sound designer (of effects to accompany music score)
Jingle writer / composer
From education to video games, there are careers available for those who happen to have a background in music which the rest of us never see. Each of these fields requires time and study for proficiency, but they represent a career path that is nonexistent for non-musicians.
Sure, you already knew that playing music could improve your quality of life. Now you know it can improve the quality of your career.
