I’m 16, and looking at going to Berklee College of Music or McNally Smith for music production. I’d like to get into music engineering also, but I have no practice with a sound board at all, and would like to get into learning that area. What are some easy (by easy I mean cost efficient) and/or quick ways to break into the biz?

All details are on their home page.

I would like to be involved in the music industry and the music business when I’m older.
What should I major in to pursue this type of career?

You can major in music business. There are a lot of colleges that have great programs. Columbia in chicago is where I’m looking at right now, since i want to go into school for music business also. NYU has an amazing program that you should look into if your really serious, but you need hella good grades. One thing you should really consider when picking a college, is what type of business you want to do. There are tons. Audio Engineering, production, management. There as a looong list of music business jobs.

Okay so I really want to get an internship with a record label it could help me with the career that I want and get me connections. Not a crappy record label either but a good one. I live close to Seattle by the way.

that depends on where you are trying to get one i guess. i live close to nashville and the record companies there give away internships all the time. they even post them on career builder and monster.com

I’ve been playing the alto saxophone for a few years, and I’d like to learn more about reading and composing music in general. In short, I’d like to have a more in depth knowledge of music (scales, chord progressions, etc.). Keeping in mind that I have a very limited background in theory, what are the best books that I can learn from?

Try one of the "Idiots Guide" or "Music Theory for Dummies" books…no offence intended. I have a hard time with theory and think these really help with the basics.

Like the music recording, editing, and etc program they use to do all the producing for their songs

not sure on that one but acid music studio 7.0 works great its by sony go threw download.com

I am a fourteen year who is a young musician. I was wondering if anyone knows of any record companies that publish young musicians. First I guess I should make a CD. I have no recording equipment though. Anyway, does anyone know of any companies or not?

Well you’ll have to not only have good music, but you’ll have to of recorded your cd, ask your school often they can help you out with recording as they often have the equiptment, most do. When You Have recorded your cd you must have a sort of SA of who you are, your style of music and personality. After that you must sell a few cd’s to get them interested. Sales catch their eye a lot, about 1000 should, do (I know A Lot) Record companies will hire someone talented of your age, as long as you have all the above, just send it to every record label you can,
Good Luck
