In the music world and pop culture, it’s easy to find stories about the dream of becoming a star - often in either the rock or pop music scenes. What doesn’t get talked about as much, is the classical music world. How musicians find themselves drawn to that path, rather than more popular kinds of music.

How musicians can be creative about making money, and shaping a new kind of career in the classical music world.

Robert Heath is a clarinetist who first experienced the connective power of music during his years in bands with the West Virginia National Guard and the US Navy. Witnessing how music can bridge cultural divides and bring people together was a powerful catalyst for Robert.

Now, he puts together small ensembles, so classical musicians can make money performing in a way that’s more agile and cost effective. He also teaches other classical musicians how they can do this, and pairs an entrepreneurial mindset of being willing to embrace failure with a musician’s creativity.
