Piano Professor + Opera Singer?
Is it possible for me to be a piano professor with all the duties that come with that career (teaching, planning, office hours, performing, doing other side-gig type things, etc.) and also have a serious, yet part-time opera career? I know having a role in an opera requires you to be available for 3-6 weeks of rehearsals during the day, so how could I make that work while also teaching at a college? Is it even possible?
Should I consider a career as a college/university/conservatory professor?
After some consideration, I have wondered if perhaps a music professor would suit me? What does being a music professor include (lifestyle, work-life). Could I teach multiple instruments (specifically piano and voice)? What degree requirements would I need to have? How does one become a professor, and specifically how do I become a professor of multiple instruments? Is performance a part of the job? How often would I perform each instrument (voice and piano)? Thank you!
Help! I have too many (performing arts) career interests!!?
I am a very ambitious person when it comes to what I want to do as far as my career goals. But, I have so many interests and things I want to do, that I just don't know how to either pick one (or a few), or just somehow try a bit of everything or something. Currently, I am interested in singing, acting, playing piano (solo, orchestral, accompaniment), and teaching piano/voice. I know opera combines singing and acting, so that might be an option, although I don't know how that would look with piano/piano teaching. I also think it would be really cool to be on Broadway! I could also go down the path of just focusing on teaching, and I think being a piano professor eventually would also be very interesting to me. I also could just choose between singing/acting, or piano, but that seems IMPOSSIBLE. I could never choose and abandon one of them, but I just don't know how I can make them work together. I think my main problem is that I don't know how I want my life to look like, so that's why I find it so hard to choose. If I don't do all of them, I feel like I'm abandoning opportunity in that field. Honestly, I just want to know how I could do it all if that's even possible.

When becoming a college professor, is it more beneficial to start at a 4-year or transfer from a 2-year?
I want to know if it would be better for me to go to a 4-year college right off the bat when wanting to become a professor so I can familiarize myself when professors there who can help me. Or transfer from a community/2-year college to a 4-year. (based around finances) #college-professor #higher-education #professors #professor #community-college
