OverviewThe music industries hinge on entrepreneurship. The recent, rapid convergence of media and the parallel ongoing evolution of music businesses have again seen the focus shift to independent companies and individual entrepreneurs. Opportunities tend not to be advertised in professional music and practically everyone begins on their own: forming a band, starting a record label, running events, or building a website. But it’s not an easy territory to navigate or get a handle on. Music Entrepreneurship features an analysis of the changing landscape of the music industries and the value of the entrepreneur within them through a series of focused chapters and case studies. Alongside contributions from key academics across the globe, expert contributors from across the industry highlight successful entrepreneurs and offers practical help to the reader trying to navigate the business. Sectors examined include: The value of the music industries Recorded music Live events Branding in music Artist management Digital distribution Full Product DetailsAuthor: Allan Dumbreck (Senior Lecturer, University of the West of Scotland, UK) , Gayle McPherson (Professor of Events and Cultural Policy, University of the West of Scotland, UK)Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Imprint: Methuen Drama Dimensions: Width: 12.90cm , Height: 2.50cm , Length: 19.80cm Weight: 0.383kg ISBN: 9781472525406ISBN 10: 147252540 Pages: 336 Publication Date: 17 December 2015 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Manufactured on demand  We will order this item for you from a manufactured on demand supplier.
