Different types of jobs in the Music Industry

            There is many different types of jobs inside the music industry and every job has different responsibilities and things to get done in order to help keep things running smoothly inside the music world. A couple examples are: Dance Instructor, Composer, Business Consultant, and a Club DJ. Each job involves things that are way different than others while some are similar in little ways, while others may almost completely overlap with just a few minor differences.

            For example a Composer, writes music for other groups, singers, orchestras can perform in front of an audience. This job is way more difficult than it sounds. For example they have to keep the style consistent throughout the whole piece, and if they are composing music for a specific group that have to write something that fits with that group. For example, they can’t write a country sounding song for a pop artist.

            While on the other hand there are Dance Instructors, which is basically exactly what it sounds like. They teach people of all ages certain moves and dances to fit with a certain song. And more than just teaching the dance they also have to come up with it on their own and know what their students can do and help make their students better dancers.

            There are also Club DJ’s which most people know what it is without explanation but for those who don’t a Club DJ is in charge of playing songs (usually at bars/clubs) to help keep the people there into it and to help make the bar make more money. Many Club DJ’s have signed contracts with certain bars or nightclubs so that the DJ’s have secured gigs to perform at that bar. It just varies on how often they perform there. There main goal is to keep the dance floor packed with people.

            The last one that I listed above was a business consultant these people have to have an insight to where a certain group stands with their competitors.

All in all there are many jobs in the music industry that you can choose from if that is the area you are interested in going into. There is almost garunteed to find a job that fits what you are looking foward to because there are so many different kind of jobs that you can go into.
