What You'll Do (Responsibilities):
  • Collaborate with faculty and students on recording sessions, delivering high-quality performances.
  • Demonstrate excellent sight-reading and improvisational skills, adapting to orchestral and chamber music.
  • Maintain a professional demeanor and adhere to studio etiquette, ensuring smooth and efficient sessions.
  • Log session hours in Workday and adhere to scheduled times, developing reliable time-management skills.
  • Contribute to the creative process by offering ideas on phrasing, dynamics, and interpretation when appropriate.
  • Work closely with composers, producers, engineers, and conductors to capture the desired sound and feel.

What You Bring (Qualifications):
  • Must be eligible to work in the US and possess a social security number.
  • Excellent sight-reading skills are essential.
  • Strong organizational and time management skills.
  • Willingness to work evening hours (typically 5:30pm-12am, depending on instrument).
  • Good communication skills and a collaborative spirit.
  • Successful completion of an audition demonstrating strong musicianship and versatility.
  • Must not be an RA (unless pre-approved by your supervisor).

What You'll Gain (Compensation):
  • Hands-on experience recording music with top-notch musicians
  • Opportunities to work directly with Berklee faculty and industry professionals
  • Development of your technical and creative skills as a session musician
  • Network with faculty and peers, opening doors to future collaborations and career opportunities.

By taking on this role, you'll gain experience that complements your academic studies at Berklee. This opportunity is designed to help you develop the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in a career as a professional session musician.
