Welcome! If you love music performance and teaching are career directions for you and so is orchestra management. Orchestra staff who work behind the scenes to make the music happen often have training in music, but there are many who love music but have majored in other areas including business, arts administration, communications, marketing and technology. As you’ll see from the Career Profiles, the range of backgrounds and college study is diverse, as are the career paths. Working for orchestras can offer you a career with multiple avenues and opportunities to contribute to the quality of life within your community.
