[comp.music] Career in Computer Music

Hi,
	I would like some advice for those of you who work in the Computer
Music field.  I will be staring my third year at Drexel U., majoring in
Electrical & Computer Engineering, concentrating on Comp. Eng.  I am VERY
interested in music, all aspects of it.  It would seem logical to combine
the two interests.

	So what kind of jobs are out there in the Comp. Music field?  I
have a 4.0 GPA, and hope to keep up there when I graduate, so I would think
that I will have a fairly large number of choices for employment.  How is
the salary for someone with an E.E. degree?

	I wanted to work for Ensoniq as a co-op, but they said they had
nothing open at the moment.  I wound up working at AT&T Bell Labs.
Although the paycheck is good, I'm really not doing what I want to.  How
much would I sacrifice if I didn't work for a big company on graduation,
but took a comp.music job instead?

I'd appreciate your thoughts/comments on the subject.

Thanks,
Iggy
