Do they have courses in the business aspects of the industry as well as engineering and technical areas?
They have everything. Belmont has “Introduction to Music Business”, and “Copyright Law”. They have real music orchestration classes. You can get a music degree, or you can get a business degree with what they call a Music Business minor, which is sort of a cross section of production; studio production, studio engineering, orchestration, copyright law, and music publishing. They have courses in all of those. That’s rare. We get asked every once in a while what kind of degree one needs to get into the music business. I’ve always said there is no such degree. No, you actually can. From Belmont you can get a degree in Music Business and at MTSU they have what they call the RIM Program, which is Recording Industry Management. And you can actually get a degree in Recording Industry Management.
