Designed to map the total population of musicians and form a picture of their careers and lives, the Musicians’ Census will gather data on demography, diversity, health and wellbeing, and working patterns and income.
Key findings will be shared with partner charities and music industry bodies, helping organisations plan how best to support musicians and teachers in future years. The Musicians’ Census – repeated every three to five years – will help organisations monitor and respond to the cost-of-living crisis and ongoing impact of the pandemic and Brexit, among other factors.
MU general secretary, Naomi Pohl, comments: ‘The world has changed significantly in recent years. But without quality data and representative insights, it’s difficult to understand what today’s musicians really need and how we can help.’
