There are no specific training courses or diplomas in show organisation. The job can be learned on the job. Nevertheless, certain training courses are necessary in order to be successful in the job of a musical show manager. For example, the audiovisual BTS, the BTS NDRC or the BTS MUC for the bac+2 level and the bachelor in management, the licence pro communication et valorisation de la création artistique and the BUT GEA for the bac+3 level. Having a master's degree in management would also be an asset for being a good show entrepreneur. However, to become a musician, it is advisable to study at a music school, an art school or a national conservatory of music. There are several certificates in music such as the CFEM, DEM, DNESM, DUMI and CAPES. Knowledge of scores, interpretation, management of a team of musicians and mastery of several instruments (guitars, trumpet, violin, organ, accordion, flute, etc.) are essential to be a musician. In music performance, it is also important to have knowledge of financing, administration, organisation, legislation, promotion and regulation. In order to organise a music show and participate in tour management, time management and negotiation skills are required. Patience, perseverance and a very good knowledge of broadcasting are highly recommended. Knowledge of logistics is also welcome. Finally, to become a show organizer, it is necessary to have a show business license number. After a long experience, the musician can play the role of conductor.

A musician can offer his services to any person, artist or event company wishing to organise a concert, an opera, an event show or a cabaret. He and his team are able to take control of the different phases of the show (contracts, budget, communication, technical organisation, etc.). He or she may accompany young musicians, a music band or a group of singers. The instrumentalist is also able to work with the tour organiser, the show producer and the show promoter. Together with them, he or she can take care of the various steps to be taken, from setting up the stage to negotiating with other artists (singers, musicians, videographers, etc.), via the ticket office. The musician may work with various staff (volunteers, sanitary staff, security staff, etc.). The regulations governing the venue and administrative authorisations are also part of the show organiser's job. In terms of budget, it is the organiser who makes the pay slips for his team, organises the tour schedule (plane tickets, buses, restaurants, room reservations, etc.) and draws up the concert programme. The musician may cooperate with a show production agency or a private company and may delegate tasks to competent professionals such as in communication, in the reception area and in technical management. The whole organisation usually depends on the artistic and management director. He can adapt his music show according to the type of audience (amateur shows or large shows) and the number of tickets to be sold. He is also able to participate in free shows.

The instrumentalist has the skills to impress the audience and the organisers at a music performance. His or her goals are to make the music show a success and to bring in as many spectators as possible, while coordinating and controlling all the fundamental aspects of a production, from preparation to communication to music programming. Without a musician and music show organiser, there is no touring for bands and singers. He knows how to work with different types of singers whose music can be musical, reggae, rock n roll, rap, hip-hop, pop-rock, gospel, choir or chorus. He may also work with various musicians (DJ, orchestra, accordionist, symphonic, pianist, soloist...) and dancers. He can promote products (albums, press kits, videos, etc.). The organiser in turn may ensure the safety regulations and the reception of the public.

It is advisable to call on a show organiser and artist to set the mood for a party, carry out a charity event or fund an organisation. Whether it is an acoustic show, a classical music concert, a jazz festival or gospel concerts and shows, the musician can take care of the music. He can also offer his services for cabaret, theatre shows, live shows or circus music. It is also advisable to hire a music performance contractor for a music festival, an international festival, an event or a cultural action. Punk music, electronic music, blues music, symphonic music, flamenco music and chamber music can be performed by musicians.

In Danda, it is very easy to find a musician through the StarOfService directory. Just choose the right musician, answer a few questions and follow the steps.

The average cost of a music show with a professional musician is around €250. The price for hiring one or more musicians can vary depending on the type, location and day of the show. The show often takes place at the weekend. The duration and number of people involved also affect the cost of the performance. For example, a duo costs from €500, a trio from €750 and a group of musicians from €1000. The price also depends on the popularity and quality of the musician. On average, the price can go up to 300 € up to 500 € TTC per musician depending on the type of reception (cocktail, meal, aperitif...).

Before choosing the music show organiser and the musician, it is essential to determine - the type of music performance (national opera, slam, symphony orchestra...), - the target audience (professional, family, religious, young audience...), - and the venue (cultural centre, festival hall, concert hall, church, sports hall, etc.). The show organizer and the musician should have a lot of experience in administration, regulation and financing. Recommendations should be sought from various event agencies, composers and party organisers. They should also have a performing arts licence and should have connections with many singers and musicians. It is also essential to know their rates. It is important to ask for a quote as this will give you a detailed idea of the various technical requirements (marquee, costumes, choreographer, piano, etc.) and the steps to be taken. Once you have chosen the ideal show organiser with the musicians and singers, you should have a contract signed to ensure that both parties are in agreement.
