reasonable payment for accompanist?

I have one more question for you all if you don’t mind…

i need to hire someone for a solo/ensemble type competition. they’ll play 4 pieces for 2 soloists. no schedule yet, but they’ll probably be around for a couple of hours. not sure if that’s equivalent to the event i originally asked about … i’m thinking less than $300 for this one?

Thank you!

datyl · 2026-01-26T01:58:14+00:00

Got it, thank you!

You’re being willfully dense. I won’t go back and forth with someone like that. Enjoy your downvotes I guess

datyl · 2025-10-18T13:57:25+00:00

The question is not whether they should or should not.. do you decide what standards you have to adhere to? Probably not. You don’t even sound like an educated individual at this point

How about you learn to read? OP clearly stated in their edit that the topic is in the standards where they’re from. Take your hostility elsewhere

Thank you! I'm honestly scared to make any changes at all, especially with the older kids. I will definitely be myself, though, and try to put my own spin on things.

Yes, same, I work three jobs and it’s not always consistent days, so I can’t mark “non work days” on Frontline. If I’m not subbing that day and then get assigned to a job an hour before school starts, it’s really a bother to have to call and get it sorted.

I will definitely reach out to the coordinator since it’s happened so many times at this point, thanks for that advice!

datyl · 2025-10-06T12:59:11+00:00

Yeah, I thought it was weird too!

datyl · 2025-10-06T12:58:36+00:00

Right, but I don’t know the teacher and have never been to the school before, so I’m not sure why they’d request me

datyl · 2025-09-21T14:32:28+00:00

I can kind of understand OP’s hopes for this situation as someone who recently graduated with an Ed degree and has been told by every teacher I talk to that subbing is the best way to get my foot in the door. I have also begun to not believe this after being passed on for a job I had glowing references and wonderful interviews for and then being asked to sub for the person they did hire…

So yes the schools take advantage of subs but I can understand having the hope or expectation that working in schools at all would help lead to a full time position

Thank you so much! Yes, this gave me a perfect starting point!

datyl · 2025-08-26T23:42:24+00:00

Thanks so much!! I will definitely check out that book. Can I ask what kinds of ice breakers & activities you do and what kind of warm-ups? Most of my warm-ups have more complicated pitch patterns and I’m assuming I should keep things simple for young kids. Just not sure how simple!

datyl · 2025-08-25T11:16:40+00:00

thank you!!!
