I would say NO. They would prefer to find someone in their country because the companies try to avoid bunch of employment paperwork. The process to hire somebody who lives outside Europe is hell complicated & besides it costs them a lot of money too & they won't risk to put such investment for something that has no guarantee. Unless you are very famous in your country, they might consider you twice.
English in Switzerland is not enough, you might have to learn French, German or/and Italian. Even this, isn't sure that will help you.
Especially for Music, I guess they don't look for people in this area now. If you are Aerotic/ Jet Engineer, they would ask you for interview immediately because there's not many people doing this special field in Switzerland.
There are many music students in Switzerland that always do their performance on the street, my friend studies this too, but it seems you have no future here if you are just a Musician. I would recommend you to reevaluate your work destination, such as: Germany or US.
In Germany, there's a popstar fever where a company look for young singer or bands. The Jury is one of Modern Talking's singer (Dieter Bohlen).
In Us, maybe you can start your career in Walt Disney, but depends what you are studying. They always need people to sing or play music instrument to give song & music in their Disney Film or theme parks or TV Program.
I hope it gives you clear reality in finding job abroad. I think you really need to consider carefully all aspects before you start looking, otherwise it just gonna waste your time & energy. Try to find out more destinations that can give you more chance to perform your music talent & check out which companies might offer you this opportunity!!!
GOOD LUCK!

The question is: What can you do with your diploma for Music in Europe. Teaching music??
First you must speak and read, I would say, pretty good, either French or German (depends where you want to workand live).
Second, work permit is extremely difficult to obtain, unless you are hired directly from a company in Switzerland. (Schools don't need music teachers, they have plenty).
Go there and find out for your-self

Definitely not. Your best chance is to interview with a company based in Switzerland so that you can come to Switzerland on an expat package.

Yes, actually i'd say you could but not only with english, and especially with the music industry you must speak italian i'm sure, i'm swiss.
If you live in Toronto i know a good friend of mine that has an italian tutoring program all year long, www.tutorino.ca should help!
