Entertainment Industry

I found the perfect association, I'm so excited to be able to discuss this. You see, I'm not only interested in artist management for musicians (possibly actors and dancers in the future), but more specifically, classically trained musicians.

So, not only is this a classical music artist management association, but it is worldwide. This is a huge aspect of this organization. If there are any problems, they seek to resolve the conflict through the help of their network and can do so from any country and in any language. How many companies do I know of that this is as accessible? Probably none off the top of my head.

Not only this, but they are steadily working on the uprise of the market in (SURPRISE!!) China. They obviously know where the game is headed. That country was living under a social rock for so long, and now that they have internet access, the market is taking off like never before seen anywhere in the world. Why? Because all of the development has already occurred. All of the other countries have developed with the development of the world market, but no, not China. China is an excited baby with a shiny new set of keys to the future.

As a brainstorm, I think that it would have been a wonderful feat if someone had anticipated China's market finally opening up and was prepared to send them everything. Just think of what they can do for the rest of the world now that they have access to us.

Not that it is a specific mission of theirs (although if it isn't, I'm sure deep down it is, or it definitely should be!) to reach out to China's new market, but this is a great example of the work that this organization tries to fulfill. They want the classical musicians to be secure and have a place in the world. Now that China is open and ready and most likely willing, I can't imagine what kind of musicians will come from that country. It's a vast country, very poor, but with lots of people. Information is quite free (just not the way they receive it) and they have to be creative as to the ways that they use it. They only want the most new exciting things there, and that is how the industry will need to target it's market projections.
