Hire a Musician

Hire a Student Musician

The SSU Department of Music encourages freelance performance opportunities for students to develop entrepreneurial skills, create professional opportunities and build successful and sustainable careers in music.

Requests must be received at least six (6) weeks prior to your event. Due to the flexible nature of our student population, we cannot guarantee that all ensemble options listed below will be available. Please submit your request and we will get back to you promptly.

Students accept performance opportunities as freelance performers, and are not employees of Sonoma State University. The department does not set fees, and student artists negotiate fees as part of their career training. However, clients should be aware that fees are typically $100 per musician for a 60-minute performance.
