i started looking to join as conservatory because thats just an experience that i want to have in my life and i have been getting 0 support, everyone i talk to about it just discourages me. And that + so many musicians that i know that dont even fucking want to do anything or people who used to play music and gave up it pisses me off. Why is it that everyone is scared of taking music seriously

Dedicating your life to music is a serious risk with very little chance of financial success.

so what so what who needs to live comfortably i dont you all are just weak

This is a non issue but people who go to "music school" have a tendency to make the most boring shit I've ever heard

youre only thinking of jacob collier

Name three good active artists who went to music school.

being a musician should be a ride or die situation, even if you have to adjust your entire life in order to make it possible you will do it otherwise you're just setting yourself to failure

>>129156136
john coltrane, la monte young and bill evans, and these are just some that i like

Music school fuck's need to fuck off. Those old rock stars did not went to music schools
>>
>>129156868
i dont wanna be a rock star though i wnana be like a good jazz player and play in jazz big bands and orchestras and such. And i just wanna study music in depth

>>129155447
Has OP applied to and been accepted by a serious music school?

No.

Is OP instead working in bands right now?

No.
>>
>>129156381
I said active. I will concede that music schools still produce good jazz musicians and probably good classical and studio/backing band guys as well.
>>
>>129157016
how would you know that, youre just assuming things, yes i have applied to a conservatory before, and im looking at conservatories to apply right now. And the reason i dont have a band is because every person i try to play with never makes the time for it

and that is the main reason i want to join a conservatory i want to be in a band and find people who will actually take it seriously

Nobody wants to pay for music. Nobody wants to hear anything new. If they hear something new it's just "garbage" because they aren't used to the sound. Nobody gives a fuck anymore - music is over

>people who go to "music school" have a tendency to make the most boring shit I've ever heard
Hard to argue with this, everyone I know who went through "the sawmill" as I call it and makes music makes well-composed, intelligent but ultimately formulaic, pedestrian music devoid of risk and spontaneity. I think getting a degree in music theory kills a part of the innate spark that makes music fun and engaging. Then again, perhaps its a matter of perspective.

this is happening in the most serious forms of music. edda moser says everything is trash now and that she will not live long enough to visit another opera thats worth it.
"I wont live long enough to see seriousness again".
idk, people just feel like they need to become themselves, instead of becoming something great instead.
