Hi everyone,
I recently finished my MM in flute performance and have always been working towards an orchestral career, but I've recently been considering shifting my focus to pit orchestras. I've played in a few musicals and have really enjoyed them, but had never really considered pursuing it as a career before now.
I guess I'm just looking for some general advice on how to get started - which instruments should I learn first? I'm assuming Clarinet and Sax would be smart since I'm primarily a flute/piccolo player. How do I go about learning how to shop for these instruments and, if I'm trying to pursue this as a career, do they need to be top-of-the-line instruments?
I've also recently moved away from Boston, but now I'm really missing it and thinking of going back. Is anyone familiar with the career prospects in this area? Thanks so much in advance.
~Jess
