Greetings to all of you, my blog post’s readers!
In my future blog posts, I will convey my thoughts about many current events from my professional and private life. About events from the past that had great significance and influence on me, about people, places, about music.
There will also be a place for texts that will represent my attitude, seeing certain topics, products, situations when it comes to dealing with music through the activities of performers, music authors and lecturers.
Being a professional musician in the XXI century is very interesting, but above all challenging. Today, hardly any musical artist, performer, composer has the privilege of being able to exclusively write and/or perform music. This has become the unattainable dream of many around the world, and probably only the most popular with large incomes can afford such “professional comfort”.
The vast majority is forced to master and perform many other skills and jobs in order to make playing music profitable and become a full-time job. From music business and marketing jobs through audio and video production to various skills in the field of digital technologies and social networks.
In my blog posts, I will give you personal experiences and thoughts about how I perceive my position and role as a professional musician in the XXI century with all the advantages and obstacles that the new era has brought. What I have learned, how it benefits me and what I am currently working on.
I hope that what you are about to read will be helpful to you. I also hope that you will share with me your experiences and thoughts regarding a certain topic.
Sincerely yours,
Vladimir Samardzic
