Excellent article. Another unique approach for engineering-minded undergraduate students who want to study both music and engineering is a degree in Acoustical Engineering and Music at University of Hartford. Students need to be admitted to both the College of Engineering and the Hartt School. The professors in the program are impressive, and the post-graduated employment rates in Acoustical Engineering are very high.

Congratulations to the writer and to MAJORINGinMUSIC.com for taking a leadership role in identifying and addressing the issues and concerns of conservatory trained professional musicians in contemporary society. The issues as outlined in the article are both substantive and immediate and require pro-active solutions. I am happy to read that many conservatory trained musicians are not retreating from the complexity of issues they must handle but are confronting the problems with the energy and skills of a person who majored in business or marketing. Their synergistic problem solving approach will yield very successful results. I am also quite delighted to read that Ms. Jennifer Campbell is identified as one of the new wave of musicians who both understands and acts with not only superb musicianship, talent and aesthetic sensitivity but also marketing astuteness and entrepreneurial energy. I sense that Ms. Campbell understands how to balance the life of a professional artist between the pressing distractions of a financially focused and digitally driven society and her artistic need to bring beauty into the world with each performance.I find her performances to be inspiring,stimulating and intensely personal. For an audience member It is like being able to capture all the beautiful butterfly’s in the world all at once in one net.
