Music, Education and Inspirations

There are some things in life that I want to achieve. Although it is pretty late to wish for it, I want to become a musician. I know for a fact that it wouldn't be achieved by merely learning from my peers or just doing exercises on paper. A few days from now I'll be interviewing one of the most prolific artist/composer the country has ever produced and I want to draw inspiration from what she did to make it to the top. If you also have some questions for her it would be really nice to leave a comment on this article and I'd personally ask her about it. I would like to also see if it would be feasible for me to get into escuelas de musica and get me a course or two. Getting educated in the most reputable schools and finishing something in this field would guarantee employment and opportunities that we would never even dream about.

Where do I start? Where do we draw inspiration from? Would it be hard for an ordinary person to penetrate a saturated music industry? What do you think is the biggest break you ever got from being in the recording industry for years? What do you think made you famous and what kept you stay there? I've got a lot of questions that remain unanswered but I'd like to have them at least be discussed with someone who already made it big. Wouldn't that be just inspiring?!

Let me know what you think! I'll wait for your comments! =)
