Music-Personnel is an online database (www.music-personnel.com) of musicians, composers, engineers, and others seeking collaborations or music-related employment. The interface is easy to use. From the drop-down menus, you specify the location, specialization, and musical genre that you're looking for. Click on Find, and the database delivers the search results. Musicians of all skill levels use the service, and the database is updated daily . . . MusicSchoolSearch (www.musicschoolsearch.com) helps high-school students, professional musicians, music educators, and guidance counselors locate college-level music and recording schools. The Web site searches by desired degree subject (jazz studies, technology/recording arts, and so forth), geographic location, program length, and student-body size. The result is a list of matching schools, along with their contact information . . . Garageband.com's In the Studio With mentoring program (www.garageband.com) pairs aspiring musicians with music-industry leaders. Every day, a professional producer or engineer on the Web site's advisory board critiques a song created by a participating artist. After completing the program, artists are eligible for a chance to win a $250,000 recording contract. Advisory-board members include Sir George Martin, Joe Chiccarelli, Brian Eno, and George Massenburg, as well as a host of other luminaries in the industry. You can specify which board member you prefer to deal with when you sign up.
