ENTREPRENEURSHIP FOR COMPOSERS
Composers are, by their very nature, entrepreneurs, but most collegiate programs do not include courses covering the business side of being a composer. Questions related to managing and maximizing income are often left to their post-graduate education, sometimes only offered through The School of Hard Knocks. This course aims to remedy that with lesson topics that will help composers diversify their income streams and make the most of each.
