Should I begin writing and publishing music (for school concert and marching like bands) to prepare my college resume?

I would like to become a band director and a composer one day for school bands and I was wondering if having published work would help me gain against my “opponents” when applying for college.

Is Having a Degree in Music Composition extremely important for Game Design?

Unfortunately, my college does not currently have a degree program for Music Composition and Production (to my knowledge) for accompanying a game design major; however, with so many online resources and possibilities for learning music, I would like to know how important it is. Also, if there are other ways to show my strengths and talents within that field (i.e. like an indie game soundtrack, cover or ep, etc). #music #music-industry #gamedesign #musician #singer #music-production #composer #indiecomposer

What types of job opportunities are available for a concert pianist?

I am currently a rising high school senior, and I am looking into possibly minoring in piano, or maybe even majoring. I deeply love playing the piano - it is my passion to play it for the rest of my life. I am very worried, however, that I will not be able to find a job if I were to pursue my dreams in becoming a concert pianist. I therefore have a plan to pursue a career in accounting, but I am still wondering if it would be at all possible for me to still play the piano as a career (even part-time), and would it be possible for me to have a said career without even getting a degree in piano. #music #music-composing #composer #piano #classical-music
