Episode 17: Agents

This week Alex and Helen tackle the mysterious topic of classical music agents. They discuss the unusual aura which surrounds agencies and artist agents, in particular how difficult it can be to contact them. They talk about the need to be shrewd when entering into a contract with any agency, considering things such as the artist roster you're joining, commission fees and whether you and your agent are on the same page. They recommend, as an artist, having a secure team of confidents surrounding you, in order to help you make the best possible decision.
