A recent virtual panel discussion brought together dozens of music industry students and four respected and experienced leaders in the field, enabling students to learn the ins and outs of the music industry.

Moderated by Jim Corona, who has experience as a sound engineer, road manager, stage hand, backline tech, sound designer, and venue production coordinator, the special panel discussion conducted via Zoom enabled the experts to share their stories with students. Corona, who has more than 30 years of industry experience, has worked with artists such as Paul Simon, Sting, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. He offered his advice to students who are planning to work in the industry, discussing the importance of networking with others.

The panel included Elizabeth Freund, Michael Connor, and Jesse Lautner, who have all worked with Corona. They discussed what they learned when they were beginning their careers, what has worked well for them, and how the industry has changed.

Erica Haskell, Ph.D., chair of the University’s music department who helped organize the discussion, led a question-and-answer session with students.
