My life lies in your hands!?

Question

I am writing a senior research paper at Tularosa High School in Tularosa, NM, and it is required for me to graduate. I was wondering if a musician (or someone whose career involves music) would answer these questions:

1) What is the name a description of your job?
2) What is your annual salary?
3) In what parts of the US (cities, states) is this type of job most concentrated?
4) Is your job constant, or is their a lot of free time?
5) Where did you attend college, and for how long?
6) Does your job require any lisences, or other special reqiurements?
7) What kind of benefits does your job offer?
8) Do you travel with your job?
9) What other jobs does your area of study offer?
10) Do you enjoy your job?
11) Does your personality match your job?

Please answer in as much detail as possible. Thank you so much. I live in a small town and it's hard to find people with this type of career. We don't even have a music program so I literally have nobody to ask locally.
