Summer employment for music majors

By Lisa Taylor


When summer arrives, most college students either are headed home or out to look for a job to tide them over till the fall arrives once more. They generally prefer jobs that can help them earn some money. Depending on the progress these students have reached, some can get a job working in the field they are studying. The summer jobs are mainly for a short period of time.

If you are music major, what is available for you based on your skills at a musician?

Summer music camp can be a good option. These camps generally take musicians as entertainers and counselors. Some people are paid while others are not. The room facilities are offered by some of the camps and you practice your music there. The hiring process is quite competitive. You will also get a chance to emphasize your experience. It is also needed to inform how you deal with the children. You need to do something special to stay in competition.

You can prepare a DVD of your performance. Short clips can also be added to create an impression. You need to work on your resume a lot. You will get an idea of everything there itself.

Frenchwoods summer camp is considered to be a good option. This organization offers non-competitive summer music programs in the United States for college students. There is no need to give audition before summer. After arriving at the camp you need to give the audition. Musicians of all levels can join the camp. The camp has a cooperative environment between music campers so they are able to include you in some form of performance right away.

They have a youth symphony, a concert band, a jazz program and a rock and roll camp so no mater what your skills, you have a great opportunity to be included.

The camp offers a lot of activities for the interns and is a great place to have fun.

For music students, summer music camps are about the best opportunity to find employment that is geared to your skills. Some are better than others are, and most pay and offer room and board. This can be a great way to spend your summer days. You can help others learn and also improve your skills at the same time.
