Re: A Professional Tubist Sallary

1) What can a professional tubist in a major symphony orchestra or instrumental group expect to make in a year?

2) What is a tuba professor's sallary like?

3) What about having one or multiple solo Cd's?

Please feel free to share any other thoughts.
1.) $40,000 - $100,000+
2.) $5,000 - $70,000+
3.) -$10,000 - $10,000,000,000 (solo CD's are rarely a primary income source)

This is for a research project in my elite musician class.
Hopefully they teach you how to research. :evil:

Read these, the first gives you the minimum salary for New York, Cleveland, Chicago, and Philadelphia:

This one has some generic references about how much musicians make:

If you have trouble pulling data out of an Internet search engine, read through this and see if it gives you some insight on how search engines work:
