@sosconcern the singer i am referring to is stuck. “One must do what one must do” does not work in this instance. He has no funds to pursue his career. He is spending the little money that he is bringing in on his loans.This guy has already won some of the top competitions on the planet but now cannot afford to take it to the next level since he cannot afford the trips to auditions. I know that this is hard to fathom, especially for parents of young students, but the REAL spending on pursuing a career in classical voice happens after the MM. Auditions cost a fortune.(you literally have to pony up money for the audition) Preperations for auditions cost a fortune. Travel to auditions cost a fortune. One of the many things that “one must do” is not incur debt. In short when parents think they are helping the singer by incurring debt, they are in fact hindering the singers chance for a future in music. I see it all the time.
