I would still contend that those who pursue the arts do so for reasons that defy a financial model. However, look only to our history when being a wind player was the path to a really high paying job, the 1930s and 1940s. The pinnacles of that career field made as much as $70,000 dollars a week. And that was when you could buy a steak dinner for a couple of dollars. Back then everyone and his uncle was trying to be a bandleader or a sideman.


Of course, times have changed.
