Lives in Music

What does it take to have a life in music?

There are many “how-to” books that explore the inner workings of the music business and outline important steps for success, from recording songs to growing a social media following. But these steps are only half of the equation. Many sources offer excellent content, but are often missing important context. 

In Infinite Span: Lives in Music, Professor of Media Noah Schwartz explores music by placing it in context: historical, philosophical, technological, personal, and cultural. Through these explorations, you will learn how music as an art and industry got to where it is today, where it may be going, and how you can find your place. 

It’s the infinite span of music — a never-ending journey to make your life music and make music your life.
