chance I got, a music business course at a New York College to attend. This lecture was the last before the midterm exams. So was the student briefly explains what they need to prepare around because it is not intended to give all the bad marks.
This knowledge Summary expired in great detail, so that all co-wrote diligently: What is the difference between the publisher and label what Mechanicals what is meant by master, etc. For people that want to work in the music industry, are the absolute basics, comparable with the question: "Where in the Civil Code the contract is settled?" Still came in to me sitting around people panic. One even asked, "When is it the test?" and reacted shocked when he heard that this was the last lecture before the exam. Therefore one must say: Everyone has got a timetable, the date on which what is taught and when tests are. Sooo was surprisingly not.
The scoop was then the following: In the lectures was also the book "Hit Men" by Fredric Dannen (currently in Germany probably available only in English ) are discussed. In the early knowledge to work one day in the music industry, I've already devoured this book to school hours almost. It is my humble opinion one of the best and most exciting books of all time and contains incredibly interesting Information for any music junkie. It is not difficult to read this book. This is not " Civil Law " by Medicus, but a collection of anecdotes, which reports on the Payola scandal and about the experiences of the different labels and the big companies like Clive Davis or Tommy Mottola . An absolutely entertaining book, which shows that the stereotypes of the industry were not clichés. This book is a must read in any case for the test, it said. Then a student came forward and asked, "Do we have read the entire book or only a part"
Onthe answer, it would already be the whole book, then went again a murmur through the crowd.
