If you have a child (especially a daughter), or are yourself interested in degrees and a career in Classical Vocal Performance/Opera, I think the following two articles are so important. They are a sobering take on the finances of being educated and working as a singer (especially as a woman). Don’t despair, but do be informed!

I am hoping CC will allow me to post the links. I did try to email for help but received no response. If not, search theempoweredmusician (dot com) and look at the Gender Disparity articles from 10/4/2017 and 11/2/2017.
