Nieve, a member of Liverpool Philharmonic Youth Company, has attended Careers Fest for
many years and said:

“I enjoy attending Careers Fests because they inform me of the different musical careers
available to young musicians like myself and other musicians from all walks of life.
Particularly because I come from a non-musical background, the event helped me see just
how many jobs and opportunities were available out there.

Thanks to Careers Fest, I realised that my main instrument, the cello, was not just limited to
solo and orchestral performances. I have since had the chance to work with bands, string
quartets in weddings, musical theatre show-bands, private party venues and some amateur
orchestras, to name but a few!

I also work at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall as a Steward, which is another fantastic career in
the music industry, and a very important one to ensure everyone can have access to music
venues safely and enjoyably.
