Those talented musical performers, however, are only some of the people involved in making the music you enjoy. Most people in the music industry work behind the scenes, but their roles in the music-making process are very important.SongwritersBefore you can hear a song, a songwriter must imagine it Some songwriters work alone, but many songwriting teams include someone who writes the songs words, and another person who writes the music. Pop music legend Elton Johns best-known songs, including Tiny Dancer and Your Song, were written to accompany the words of Bernie Taupin, whose name you might not know.ArrangersAfter a song has been written, music arrangers make it more appealing by deciding which instruments will be used, what speed the song will have, and the songs pitch. A good arrangement can make a song a “classic” that people will remember and want to hear again and again.Recording EngineersRecording engineers also play a major role in creating the final sound that you hear. First, they set up the recording studio, the room where the performers play. Next, they use electronic equipment to record the music. Finally, long after the musicians have finished, recording engineers use a mixing board to balance the sounds of each musician, and sometimes to incorporate special sound effects or additional tracks.Studio MusiciansMany talented singers and musicians arent stars, but work in the background as studio musicians. These artists arent members of one musical group. Instead, they are hired for recording sessions that eventually become the music you buy, as well as the music used in television shows, movies, and radio ads.Many people make a living with music. You may not recognize all of their names, but all of them work together to create the songs you love to listen to.41 .
