The guidance of a skilled music producer will always be a key factor in producing a great recording. In that sense; as Michael Zager points out in his second edition of Music Production: For Producers; Composer; Arrangers; and Students; the job of a music producer is analogous to that of a film director; polishing work product to its finest sheen. And this is no small matter in an age when the recording industry is undergoing its most radical change in over half a century.Although innate talent and experience are key elements in the success of any music producer; Music Production serves as a roadmap for navigating the continuous changes in the music industry and music production technologies. From dissecting compositions to understanding studio technologies; from coaching vocalists to arranging and orchestration; from musicianship to marketing; advertising to promotion; Music Production takes readers on a whirlwind tour of the world of music production; letting readers keep pace with this rapidly changing profession.The focus of the second edition is on such topics as the expanded role of music supervisors; the introduction of new production techniques; and the inclusion of new terms in music industry contracts. Including new interviews with eminent industry professionals; Music Production is the ideal handbook for the aspiring music production student and music professional.
