Dreams are beyond what u see in everyone's eyes...
Lots of people are surprised when i told them i am taking a degree in Music.
They will like:" Music need to study one-meh?? "
" Huh?? why study this kinda subject?? Cannot earn money one-lah!"
" Aiyo, no future..."
"Music ar... very easy mah... just need to play and have fun"All these responses made me wanna bite their head of sometimes...
Therefore, i would like to take this opportunity to explain what music course is about and clear all the misunderstanding of people towards music. (So don't come to my face and give me all those response or i'll seriously kick u in ur butt :p)
Why study music in University?Take music beyond appreciation, learn it as a skill and make it my profession.
What do music student study?
-Music History
-Theory and Analysis
-Composition
-Practical Music (performing)
-Ear training/ Aural-Music Research (Musicology)
What do musician do for a living?
-Educator
-Composer
-Performer
-Jingle writer
-Arranger
-Recording company
-Sounder engineer
-Music production
Hmm.... I guess you pretty much get a rough idea what to expect from a musician and what they do in life.Music is not an easy subject, let alone a fun one! It is a serious and life-devoting subject.Therefore, don't look down on musicians!! >.<"
