Abstract

This paper attempts to present some views on the concept of entrepreneurship in the context of professional musicians’ life and work. Entrepreneurship has been increasingly regarded as an important aspect of music professions, even though it has not been universally welcomed. It has been mostly seen as a necessity resulting from the difficulties on a labour market. However, it can be argued that an entrepreneurial approach might be an effective formula for those artists who appreciate independent and innovative ways of creating value, both economic and cultural. The paper is focused on defining possible areas of musician’s entrepreneurship and exploring ways it is present in initial and continuing education programmes. It concludes with some suggestions for potential changes in music tertiary education and professional development opportunities.
