Ari Solotoff started off working in orchestras behind the scenes - first as an intern, and then as an orchestra manager. After sitting in on labor negotiations one day, he decided he wanted to go back to school for either an MBA or a law degree. Ultimately, he noticed how almost every decision he and his team were making in the orchestra had legal implications and how interwoven music and the law were. Fast forward one law degree later, and Ari has now started his own firm where he works with musicians, composers, and artists helping them with a variety of legal issues facing the arts community today. Tessa Nojaim - ALP certificate student and Eastman tuba performance student - has also always been fascinated by the law. This winter she applied to both law and music schools hoping to find a school that would let her build her own program around both interests. She talks to Ari about how she can marry the two, and what's important for any musician to know about the law.
