Description
In this course, students will be introduced to the inner workings of the music industry. The course will provide an overview of how music industry professionals create, record, distribute, and monetize their music. Students will explore how money flows from consumer to artist, as well as the roles that record labels, publishers, Performing Rights Organizations, and other major institutions play in this process. We will also examine the effects that technology has had on the creation and consumption of music throughout the recent past. While this course may be of special interest to music creators and business students, you do not need musical or business experience to enroll.
