CaltechViolist Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 None that I know of except in popular music - and even then only if you get really famous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 You make good money as a Hollywood film composer. Don't count on being one of the lucky ones who makes it there, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinjessome Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Who chooses a profession in music if their goal is to make "good money" ?? Good luck! Shoot for the stars, my friend - I hope you're a very talented and persistant individual. Me? I hope only to live comfortably and be happy doing something I love....maybe you can mow my lawn for a few bucks someday. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHEKHAR Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 There are a lot of those contests - just Google in various ways. Here's a page which lists some : COMPOSITION OPPORTUNITIES - COMPOSER OPPORTUNITIES Make it a habit to search the net boys - it is a treasure trove! Here's a page on "Commercial Opportunities" info: Worldwide Internet Music Resources: The Commercial World of Music Give feedback - something that this forum doesn't.

Dunael Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 If you want to be rich... forget art music for sure... art isn't about being rich... but about passion, devotion and lots of time to spend. You're best to study medecine or pharmacology or such. Then you're more certain to be enough rich if being rich is a goal for you. It isn't for me fortunatly and I live quiet well and happy ! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
