Education as a music producer?
So Im a freshman,and I was thinking I should start thinking about what I wanna do in a couple years….and my question is,what kind of education is required,or preferred in a music producer?
Right now,Im learning how to play guitar,I know basic piano(took lessons when I was younger),and Ive been in my school’s choir for about 3 years now.And Im currently taking AP (Advanced placement;College level courses) classes.
I mean,I’ll still try to have the highest education as I can,but I was just wondering.
Thanks =]
*Sorry,I didnt know which category this question would be in!*
Necessary Professional Skills and Educational Requirements
Many colleges and universities offer certificates and degree programs in music production. Some schools have programs in fine arts or music concentration in music production or sound engineering. Students in these programs can anticipate studying courses in:
Musical History and Theory
Composition
Songwriting
Ear Training
Copyright Law
Finance and Marketing
Entrepreneurship
Students will have to spend many hours honing their skills in piano in and out of the classroom. Knowing how to play the piano is necessary because it is songwriters’ and producers’ primary tool, used during the composition process.
Modern music production is very dependent upon computer software and digital technology. Students are required to take courses in the use of the most powerful and latest computer workstations and software packages. Today’s music producer has to welcome technology’s role in the recording process and be ready for the progress that tomorrow brings.
