What if I tell you that -

a) You can make a better than decent living out of your passion in music?

b) Your passion results in a life long romance and an opportunity to see and visit places?

c) A number of persons have created a great name for themselves in the profession of a disc jockey and are earning more than the top ranking CEOs of some big companies.

Sounds like a dream? Doesn’t it? Well here is all that you want to know about various options available to you in the field of music.

First things first. You need to decide the field you want to specialize in. You may be a super performer, a great entertainer. All these professional choices are open to you for further advancing in your career.

There are a few things which you need to bear in mind before embarking on the great musical journey of your life. Having decided to make a career in the field, you would definitely be brimming with skills and talent. What you may require is perhaps some ideas about what options are available to you in the vast field of music.

Let us concentrate on the profession of a performer. A performer gives shape and his personal touch to music and gets maximum accolades for a nice performance. You can be a part of a band or independent. If you are a band member, you can be a vocalist, a drummer, a pianist or a guitarist. In that case, one of the avenues available to you is to give a live performance at many places such as night clubs, weddings, holiday parties, company functions, music stores, star hotels, cruise liners, grand openings and so on. There is a great demand for a disc jockey and you may end up earning good amounts as you gain experience in the area.

Another area you can explore is to cut and place your own CD for sale in the market. It is a good idea to package your music and create a bit of hype around it. Remember it is show business. You may be a powerhouse of talent but would still require some publicity to sell it.

Teaching music is yet another career choice available to you. This is a wonderful profession, which does not require a college degree or certificate. All you require is better than average credentials, word of mouth publicity and the ability to play an instrument. In fact, you can even take this up part-time along with any of the other options; you are sure to find hordes of eager students in your locality.

You can also work in a recording studio and help people make their own albums. Of course you would need to be a more discerning in various genres of music such as Jazz, Classical, Country, Rock and Urban etc. so as to be able to offer sound advice and make a difference in their music. You would also need to be conversant with techniques such as audio mastering and digital music recording to be better off.

Music is a vast field and the sky is the limit for those who want to make a beginning. Believe me; your life will never be same again.

My husband is a DJ in central Wisconsin and he charges $500.00 for weddings and $200.00 for a night at a bar (tavern). This includes lights and karaoke. What do you pay for a DJ where you are from?

For a novice dj, what equipment should I start out with? I'd like to start out with classic turntables or a cd turtable set. What do I need to look for? How much am I going to spend? I basically need general advice on what I need.
