Music Education: Why It’s Important To The Industry
While the industry mythology surrounding the idea of the self-taught artist can often cause aspiring musicians to eschew more formal tutelage, a musical education is important to creating quality work, communicating musical ideas, and understanding the relationship between music and behavior.

In this article (originally appearing on MusicThinkTank) Rachelle Wilber examines the value in a musical education, and the benefit which it can have both on an individual level and to the industry as a whole.
"For many musicians, the better path to take is to obtain a formal music education. This will not only involve an intensive introduction to music theory, but it will also help to expose the student to the cultural basis and implications of music in general. This sort of education benefits both the musician and the broader music industry in which they operate."
