One obvious one is in teaching; you can go to college and become a professional music teacher either for
schools or as a private tutor. Peripatetic teachers, ones (that/which) travel from school to school, are very
popular just now.
Another suggestion is in music therapy. This can be helping people (who/which) have physical or mental
disabilities to use music as a tool in co-ordination. It can also help accident victims to re-use limbs
(who/that) have been broken or to come to terms with trauma.
If you are into instruments, you can look at the art of making and repairing either modern instruments such
as in piano tuning or by learning the skills to recreate old instruments. You'd probably need to talk to a
museum (who/whose/that) specialises in these instruments about what qualifications you'd need. In the
same vein there is conservation work to be had by training to restore old instruments in museums or
conserve old manuscripts.
For every person upfront enjoying the limelight there are about two hundred people backstage working in
music. There are recording engineers, artist managements, artists, songwriters, and A&R (artist and
repertoire - the people (who/whom) discover new acts). In broadcasting there are music journalists,
presenters, DJs and researchers.
Then there are all the people within local government (who/whom/which) run arts centres, festivals and
events. There are the entrepreneurs, agents and party planners. Within the film world there are the people
(who/whose) put music into the movies (music supervisors) as well as any number of people
(who/whom/which) work in the legal side of things; copyright is a burgeoning area of the law
in (who/which/that) music lawyers make an absolute mint.
Don't forget the retail side of things; running a record shop takes a true love of music if you want to get it
right.
Basically, if you let your mind think laterally, there is a music job out there (whom/that) will suit you...
