In this third installment from MusicThinkTank examining what entrepreneurship really means for musicians, Nicholas Patrick Quigley delves in the application of a re-thought definition for entrepreneurship.
"The artistic side: how, why, and for whom will you be making music 20 years from now? The best-remembered composers, songwriters, and performers were absolute game changers in their respective fields. This fact behooves us as artists to hold fast to our impractical visions, and focus on macro-level goals, rather than simply the next gig, premiere, or residency. These may be important steps on a pathway to bigger goals, but we should take care to not lose ourselves in mission drift while working on smaller parts."
